Going to take a ride to the LHBS with my daughter, I had them special order some yeast for a big brew that I'm going to make.
I tasted a beer that I really liked one evening when a buddy and I were taste testing many new beers and a few bottles of our wine, needless to say, everything tastes real good when you've had a bit too much...lol
Like a bone head, I purchased most of the grain and hops before trying one more bottle while I was sober, just to make sure that I really liked it as much as I did the night that were taste testing.....as luck would have it...no, I really didn't "Love" it, but I do think that I can manipulate the recipe a bit to make it more towards the style that I like while still keeping the characteristics the original beer, if that makes any sense.
One of the fun parts of brewing is that when we taste a new beer (new to us) that we like, I usually try to clone it, with most craft beer being as expensive as just under $3.00 per bottle, up to around $10.00 per bottle depending on the type of beer, 6 packs can easily sell for $12, not to mention that many craft breweries are starting to switch over to 4 packs, it makes more sense to brew your own, but big beers like the one I'm going to brew next can easily cost in the upper $40's to brew 6 gallons.
