Hmmm what to brew next.....

[zhaufler]

What do u guys think I should brew next
I need to switch things up from the typical ipas stouts porters and blonde ales
I'm thinking maybe a pilsener?
Or a black ipa ( except I already have a porter on tap ) and I usually like to have a balance on my two beers on tap
Maybe a habenero cream ale (but I've already made that before )
Or a Belgium tripel
I wanna make this but I'm just starting to like belgiums and my brewing partner hates them
(At what point do I just say screw it and brew without him! Lol)
Any other ideas?

How about a big beer for Christmastime...

Mad elf is a big time not to funky belgain with honey and cherry that is perfect for the holidays and its pilsner malt.
My clone is pretty close at the moment and is very tasty.

Ya good idea
Being 18 years old the closest thing I've had to a barley wine was double arrogant bastard and I did not like it do to the warm alcohol taste
But since it wud age til Christmas would that all mellow out?

Prepare to get flamed on that one.

If you're experienced with blonde ales, try moving towards a Belgian blonde or a Belgian light strong ale with Noble hops, Belgian yeast strains, etc.

18 years old? I may be off base but you are under age and should not be on the forum.

Barleywine, Belgian Golden Strong, a Scottish style of some sort?

He could be not in the US...I hope. Otherwise, not a smart thing to put out there in print.

Now's a good time to get an Octoberfest going. I've got at least 3 more beers on the brewing deck, but I'm thinking about subbing out the planned Belgium Pale for a peanut butter porter.

Ya I might go with a Belgian strong ale
I just don't know much on brewing them
But I did just get a great brewing book!

Just do a big, high ABV saison. Hop according to your pallet and enjoy when warm out.

Just bottled a golden strong of my own and there's not much different. Just the addition of either Belgian candy sugar or plain table sugar and make sure you use the right yeast. I used White Labs WLP570.
