Event Idea

So my idea might be a little nerdy, but what if there was an event where everyone brewed a beer that was a clone of a commercial beer

I would call it... ready for this... The Clone Wars

there could be a blind taste against the original...

Great idea!

I'll cheat and brew a beer none of you have ever had. So no idea whether mine is the original or the clone.

Great idea, especially with all the clone recipes from Can You Brew It available. Unfortunately, most (if not all) of those beers aren't available for purchase around here (of course).

I just bottled my Epic Pale Ale clone from that podcast... a whopping 10+ oz of Cascade hops in a 5-gallon batch.

You need to check the Halifax monthly meeting threads.

Only if I get a Heritage Minutes commercial out of it.

Those in your mid-30s or older will get what I mean.

I'll wait until one of my brews tanks, then find a commercial beer from one of the big breweries that tastes just as bad and claim I was cloning it.
