Wasn't always the case!! I abhorred them at one time. After awhile of sampling many commercial IPAs and brewing my own, I found out how to brew them exactly in a way that suits my tastes.

I find I like English IPA's far more than American IPA's (or even Pale Ales)... Even if the base style of my brew (like the blonde) isn't an English style, I still use English/UK ingredients (including the yeast strain)... All the brown ales are more to UK spec than American. Especially since they're more malt forward than hop forward. :rockin:

I'm all for throwing some English 2-row or English yeast in there, but nothing can supersede my love for Pacific Northwest American hops.

Bah... But then that's why you brew what you like/want and I'll brew what I like/want... Just because I know my beer is better than yours doesn't change anything. [j/k]

I find a style I'd like to try and read other's recipes for an idea of what it takes and start punching in the numbers on the brew calculator.

I just received my ingredients to make a rye pale, a blonde, honey blonde, and a black IPA next, but will be waiting 'til after the holidays to get started.

In my shopping cart I have the ingredients for what I call a mild using 4 lbs of pilsen LME, 2 lbs of rice DME, 6 oz of crystal 10, Liberty and WLP 001/1272 that ought to be 4.7% ABV for those who took a long time to drink my blonde. And an amber that I'll try using a little Special Roast and Victory to get something similar to Fat Tire.

I love a good coffee stout and want to try that, as well as a barleywine, and an IIPA. Not to mention trying a mead.

I left off my first 2 brews which were a complete failure. A Cooper's lager kit and a Mr Beer West Coast pale ale I tried to convert into an IPA.
