What should I make?

[bottlebomber]

I want to brew tomorrow or Friday, and I'm not going down to the HBS. This is what I've got:

15 lbs pilsener malt
1 lb honey malt
8 ounces melanoidin
8 ounces Carapils
4 ounces acid malt

I've got WLP029 Kolsch, Wyeast 1010 Am. Wheat, Wyeast 3787 Trappist HG, Wyeast 2001 Czech Lager, US-04, 05, and Nottingham. I also have most hops.

My problem right now is I can make a whole lot of different styles with those ingredients, and well, I can't decide what to brew. I'm totally open to suggestions.

Id do a czech pils, let it lager until spring time. Just a simple recipe with pils, carapils, and pils type hops.

That was one of the ideas I had, I do have a Czech pils lagering away in the fridge already. I was kind of thinking about doing an "enhanced" Czech pilsner at around 1.080 and 55 IBU. Not sure where it would land in terms of FG though, I don't want a sweet lager and my 1.055 CP finished nicely at 1.012.

Hey ya never know, maybe you just invented the czech IPA. unfortunately you don't seem to have much to be "creative" with from my point of view.

Wouldn't that be a IPL or IPP?

I beg to differ, I think the less you have the more creativity is in order, which is why I started the thread. So far I think I could make a kolsch, belgian golden strong, Czech pils, belgian IPA, or a very pale IPA just off the top of my head. I was just curious what someone else would do in the same situation.

Like I said....my point of view.

@rammit-Oh no not another IPA style internet fight!! I can hear it already...."well, no actually it would be a czechscadian pale lager"

In referenece to the never ending BIPA debate....

Ok that does it, I'm just going to mash my pilsner, pitch some US-04, and call it a Blonde Stout

Add in some sugar and brew a Belgian Golden Strong.
