What Style Is Your House Beer?
…the one you regularly make for yourself/friends/family.
Mine is an easy drinking IPA.

Re: What Style is Your House Beer?
Mine is APA but I recently had a hankering for IPA's on the lower end of the alcohol scale but high on hops.
Other than that, I like an easy fizzy piss yellow tasteless lager
But really I'll drink almost anything and enjoy it for what it is.

Re: What Style Is Your House Beer?
I try to have an IPA of some sort on tap at all times, but as I experience a lot with different grain bills and hops I would not say it was my house beer. I think my standard bitter is the closest thing I have to a house beer, or perhaps my "Good beer for people who like bad beer" cream ale (see recipe section), as I have made them both multiple times and they've always been a hit.
Fermenting: Oud bruin/Vienna Pekko SMaSH
On tap: Nelson dry hopped Berliner/ Scottish Heavy 70-/ NE IPA

Re: What Style Is Your House Beer?
I don't have a house beer, but if I had to pick one I'd have to say a IPA\APA of some sorts is always on tap. Next year once I start brewing my own beers I may be able to better answer this.

Re: What Style Is Your House Beer?
I only have two taps until we build our new house (that ultimatum was reached, sadly, last week), but I try to keep opposing styles on tap (Right now is a porter and an American Amber)
Nova Prime Taproom
Tap 1: Festa Brew Scotch Ale
Tap 2:
"Fill with mingled cream and amber,
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chamber of my brain -
Quaintest thoughts - queerist fancies
Come to life and fade away;
What care I how time advances?
I am drinking ale today." ~ Poe

Mild/PA/IPA. There are usually two of these on tap.

6% Belgian, but doesn't taste like a Belgian cause of Wyeast Abbey Ale II yeast.

Re: What Style Is Your House Beer?
No set style, but I prefer to make beer styles that aren't readily available at the Sackville NBLC/Amherst NSLC, ie bitters, milds, and formally browns but that's changed in the last 12 months

I always have 2 of these four (sometimes all of them): Nut Brown, IPA, ESB and Hoppy Amber.

Re: What Style Is Your House Beer?
Do be honest I'm lucky to keep beer on the shelves, however I would say my go to is the IPA, possibly even an IIPA ( even if this isn't a really style
)

nothing, enjoying west coast beers while I'm based in northern BC

Stout for myself, IPA for people who like hoppy beer, light-tasting lager or pilsner for the rest.

Re: What Style Is Your House Beer?
With the adjustments I'm about to make to Stanley, and taking into consideration the taps I always go for most often. I'm thinking about putting a nice selection on Stanley. Taps 1-3 are most frequent. Taps 4-6 are there for variety.
Tap 1: Hoppy Beer
Tap 2: Hoppy Beer
Tap 3: Wit, Wheat or Weizen
Tap 4: Amber or Dark Beer
Tap 5: Seasonal (Pumpkin, Alt, Cerveza, etc)
Tap 6: Seasonal (If Stanley will hold 6 kegs)
