I am going to brew this weekend

[HomeBrewerDude]

If its not on the poll, thats too bad, because i ain't adding it. This has to be a fast beer, so no imperial stouts or barley wines.

I'm not a HUGE fan of pale ales, I like something with more balance

I might start a batch of port myself this weekend

Definately go for the ESB. Just finished up the last bottle of mine last night and I'm craving some more. But first I've got to make a Belgian Blonde Ale first, then bottle my High grav oatmeal stout that's been in secondary for about 2 months now. Starting OG 1.092, just about maxed my mash tun on that batch a bit over 18lbs of grain for a 5gal batch.

Later.

American Pale Ale - and bring some out to me in Sussex/Waukesha when you're done.

Is there a certain kit that you bought online to brew, or have you just picked up your components as you went along?

 

[Brutuskend]

no imperial stouts

But that's the only GOOD beer there is!

You can do either.

I prefer to build my recipes, but thats not as hard as a non-brewer might think.

Looks like APA is winning. Thats fine with me b/c I am a hophead!

only because i need this beer ready in 4 weeks, and thats not fair to drink either a porter or stout that soon.

Well I have some award winning Stouts that refute that. As long as its not to high of a gravity OG a stout is usually great within at least 2 weeks sometimes a few days shorter if you force carb in a keg.

go for the american, all the way. Super good stuff!

Anyone have reccomendations for equipment & ingredients online for a first-timer?
