Good Idea, I'll put something together.

I like Lynx's Detroit sourced idea. I found a Detroit area hop farm, and have emailed Two James and Detroit Distillery about barrels.

In.

Throwing out some ideas:

Imperial Stout of some variant (coffee, vanilla, chocolate, all of the above)
Porters
Tripel (though similar to last year's quad in process, probably)

Are you planning on barrel-aging again? Any thoughts on alternative barrels (sherry, scotch, etc)?

Monieyed.

Aaron and I are in.

In!

Regarding barreling, I recently had one of these. If you happen across a small port or red wine barrel, those could be good options (although finding those may be even more unlikely than small whiskey barrels). I'm down with this wine & beer combo trend.

IN. Paypal sent.

IN. So in.

Gonna restate my suggestion from the previous thread that we do a big barleywine beer. I also like the idea of a Tripel, if possible considering the time required.

A stout variant would be super cool. Some cocoa nibs, local coffee (chazzano?), vanilla beans, etc. We could put together something that represents local resources around Detroit. Mite b cool.

After having polished off a growler of CEO Stout this weekend, I'm going to throw a vote in for something coffee-related because yum. Maybe a Breakfast Stout homage? Something big and, dare I say it, epic.
