Home brew dice

[randyisrad]

Is anyone else like me? Do you ever know you're going to brew but don't know what do make? I'm toying with an idea where you roll two dice and it tells you what to make.
Here's what I'm thinking about:
Die #1
1. Imperial/Double
2. Session
3. Spiced
4. Extra Hoppy
5. British
6. Organic
Die #2
1. Stout
2. IPA
3. Amber
4. Pale
5. Sour
6. Wheat

I'm not sold on the "spiced" because a spiced sour would be awful.
What do you'll think???

 

[Homercidal]

Yeah, that would be neat. Sort of like "Plot Dice" for daytime soaps. Except I'd rather brew something that I think I'll want to drink when it's ready. If there were dice that only had those options, then I think I'd be down for that.

Meh, I use the brewer's magic 8 ball myself.

some of those combinations would be interesting.. can't say I've ever had/made an extra hoppy stout, an imperial wheat, or a british sour. You have sour, but not Belgian?

I sometimes can't figure out what to brew, but not because I need suggestions - mostly because I have a list of about a dozen styles I want to try and can't decide which to do. Sorta a "so many styles, so little time/taps/carboys"

I just printed out the periodic table of beer and will be using a dart.

You could switch out "spiced" for "oaked". I like the idea though, keeps things interesting!

 

[carnevoodoo]

Cute, but impractical.

 

[BrewThruYou]

Yeah, change spiced to Oaked. And change Organic to Pumpkin.

 

[MyNameIsPaul]

Dirty Dice are so much more fun!

Yeah, change spiced to Oaked. And change Organic to Pumpkin.

Pumpkin???? Gross

 

[Joe_K]

Yeah, change spiced to Oaked. And change Organic to Pumpkin.

Hmm, never had a Pumpkin IPA before. That could be interesting.
