I often mix my beers to experiment with different taste combinations. Most of the time it works out pretty well.
For example, I have a dark oatmeal stout, an Arrogant Bastard, and a Westvleteren 12 clone kegged. I'll take the Westy 12 as a base, add some of the Arrogant Bastard, then top it off with the oatmeal stout. I really dig the flavor of all three - the heavenly goodness of fine quad, the hop bite from the Chinook, and the dark roasty flavor from the stout.
That had me thinking of combining recipes, especially the Arrogant Bastard & Westy with Chinook hops, candy syrup, Chinooks, and maybe a little chocolate & oatmeal.
Whaddaya think, should I put the pint down ...?
