100th Ag Batch, What Should I Brew?

[Fourstar]

Doing a little recipe tinkering and i noticed my AG brewed folder is at 96 recipes and i have one beer that i have yet to ferment out the second half which will bring the count to 97.

With 100 getting very close, the question is: "What to i brew to pop my Centenary AG batch with?"

Some wacky beers i have in the pipeline.

American style Saison on Roselare blend. (this is looking like the go-er based on timing)
American IIPA (10%~)
Oak Aged IPA (may be IIPA)
My infamous Kentucky Common w/ Orval Degs or Roselare
A lame-arse fruit beer or my Honey Rye Ale.

Any other suggestions? (doesn't have to be out-there).

What was your first brew? Maybe make that again so that you can see how far you've come.

Re-brew your first every beer. But better.
An epic beer you can age for a long time.

 

[bobsaget]

An all time epic stout. Do a triple brew that will last for years and years!

 

[raven19]

Seppo Barley Wine, 1.100 OG, 100 IBU..., or

100 min IPA, 100 x 1min spaced hop additions, or

100L batch of your fave house beer with 4 different yeasts, or

Gotta play on the 100 somehow... :icon_cheers:

(I am about 30 odd away from 100... so many beers still to make though. I need to remake your Kentucky at some stage in there too!)

That was my first idea however i lost my original recipe with a fuc. up backup which got corrupted when i reformatted a PC. I immediatly rewrote it based on the first all extract beer i modeled it on and from what i remembered.

Here it is, and then how i'd pimp it, almost a brown IPA of sorts. Any other suggestions (doesnt have to be the first re-jigged.)

EDIT: not really "pimped for the ages" but could be pimped to 1:1 ratio OG:IBU @10% Abv

Just brew whatever's your favourite beer right now. Doesn't matter the beer as long as your keen to brew it.

 

[Fourstar]

Speaking of 100th batches, BribieG must be there or close to. Look what i stumbled upon moments ago!

Lucky man, I'm currently drinking the first pint of my first AG :icon_drool2: and foremost in my mind is "Shyte if only I had brewed a double batch of this" :lol:

 

[Tony]

I would make an American pale mild with just ale malt.......... 3 or 4% so its ready fast.......... but make it 100 IBU

Century Mild

 

[big78sam]

It would have to use centennial hops

 

[kymba]

congrats on nearing your ton (tonne?)! why not do a beer that you can have while contemplating your next 100

maybe a low spec'd pale ale with a light combo of flavor hops you haven't tried before. and make it mid / higher mid abv for the coming of summer


edit: like sam's centennial idea better

 

[Silo Ted]

#100. Pink Lemonade.

 

[thelastspud]

Make something a bit smoky then ice distil it and age it in one of those small 5 litre port barrels.(brew dog still thinks it counts as beer)

 

[pk.sax]

Saki

 

[Silo Ted]

100 IBU 10% ABV Barley Wine hopped with Centennial

 

[vykuza]

Look back over the list of 100 beers you've made, and single out the one you enjoyed drinking the most. Doesn't need to be fancy. Then make it again and enjoy every single drop of it.

 

[rich_lamb]

Ahh Amarillo - is there anything it can't do...

What about a really nice clean US pale ale? no freaky chocolate-apricot-gluten free-brett infused-quintuple decocted-ancient undead style.

Or as suggested a big ol' heavy stout that you can age for a while.

i see a theme going on here... (check the vitals, 100 all the way except for ABV. )

I think i might have found the leading plan at this point. Unless someone else comes up with something mind=blown. :icon_cheers:
