    Just for entertainment purposes, I was hoping you would each list your favorite base malt, crystal/caramel malt, specialty malt, hop, and yeast strain. Temper yourselves, just one. Please post them in the following format:

    Base: Simpson's Golden Promise
    Crystal: Crisp Caramel 120L
    Specialty: Briess Special Roast
    Hop: Chinook
    Yeast: White Labs' WLP001 Cal Ale


    -At the conclusion of the game, I will take the most popular base, crystal, & specialty malt...top 3 hops...and top yeast and make a recipe and brew it. If it seems like fun, we can pass it on to someone else. Who's in?

    Base: Vienna
    Crystal: 40L (so, so, far down the list. Looks like I don't like Crystal)
    Specialty: Torrified Wheat (all those Wit beers)
    Hops: Willimette
    Yeast: London Ale III Wyeast #1318
