I get asked all the time by new and experienced brewers alike "What are the top recipes here on HomeBrewTalk?". There's something extraordinarily gratifying about being able to produce the perfect pint of _______ after having read about it over and over.
As of this writing there are over 4,000 recipes in the recipe database which can make it a bit overwhelming when deciding what you're going to brew next.
Here are the top recipes section by section based on style. Thousands of you have brewed these so let us know in the comments which one you did and how it went.
Light Lager - Augustiner Lagerbier Hell - Joe Dragon
***
Pilsner - Something Like "Stella" - Mutilated1
***
European Amber Lager - Marzen/Oktoberfest - Yooper
***
Dark Lager - Uncle Crunkel's Munich Dunkel - scinerd3000
***
Bock - HBT BJCP comp winning Maibock - Tonedef131
***
Light Hybrid Beer - Cream of Three Crops (Cream Ale) - BierMuncher
***
Amber Hybrid Beer - BierMuncher's OktoberFAST Ale - BierMuncher
***
English Pale Ale - Common Room ESB - KingBrianI
***
Scottish and Irish Ale - Raging Red Irish Red Ale - Mysticmead
***
American Ale - Centennial Blonde - BierMuncher
BeirMuncher's Centennial Blonde is not only the top recipe in it's style here on HomeBrewTalk, but the top recipe of all time. More people have viewed and brewed this Centennial Blonde than most of the other beers on this list combined.
We continue next week with the part 2 covering the remaining styles in the recipe database.
Make sure to share your thoughts on the beers so far in the comments.
Salud!
