The more I get into homebrewing and zero in on the styles and hops that I enjoy, the more I'm left underwhelmed by commercial craft beers or thinking up ways to improve the beer I'm drinking.
Tonight I was drinking Avery's Hog Heaven Barleywine and Live Oak's Hefeweizen. Two very good 'beers'. All I could think about was how HH needed something other than Columbus and how the hef might be amazing with an Amarillo flavor blast.
It seems like I'm having trouble finding anything that can compete with the flavor I can bring out in my homebrew. Anybody else feel like homebrewing is altering or ruining their enjoyment of commercial craft beer?
