How do you approach your beer recipes

  • I make the same beer and never change a thing

  • I stay within a range of beers and may try someting new from time to time

  • I have my favorites but do try new recipes frequently

  • I seem to make changes in my recipes almost every brew day to experiment

  • I can't remember making the same beer twice since I try new things all the time

I have some styles that I like to tinker with and others that I have locked down. I have one clone that I have left as designed by the brewer, Pateros Creek Old Town Kolsch, just because that beer is perfect and they no longer distribute it. Others I have tweaked to the point that I am satisfied that it's a great beer and really really enjoy it as is. Hoppy beers get tweaked a lot because I like seeing what different hop and specialty grains bring to the table. I also haven't found the perfect brown/Stout/porter but that's mainly because I don't gravitate to those styles so they don't get brewed often.

As for commercial, I usually grab new stuff, always on the lookout for something new I can try to incorporate into a brew. However on the odd chance all my taps are dry I'll head to one of my old time favorites to hold me over.
