Good evening/morning dearest Madams and Sirs of the house of homebrewtalk.
I am thinking about brewing something big, around 9-11abv. Which I would fill into 0.33 litre bottles, wax the cap and put it into the basement for at least a year.
Question is, what am I going to brew? Nothing dark please, I love stouts but only up to a certain abv range, not a fan of Imperial stouts at all.
I was thinking about maybe a classic British beer? Maybe a barley wine? Maybe a historic ipa and bring Brett into play as well? Would need to buy an extra fermenter though, for the long term Brett fermentation time....
What else comes to mind thinking about non-dark big beers? I have zero experience with big beers so please let me know what else you can think of. Not limited to British styles, everything goes as long as it is not a stout/porter!
Thanks!
