I suspect a mean average recipe would stifle the diversity of tastes we have -- perhaps a "brown" ale is appropriate, given that when you mix all the colours you get brown...

I'll stay out of this one -- I'm not experienced enough to have a real opinion yet :P

Base malt = marris otter, some vienna

Specialty Malt or Malts = Crystal 60

Adjuncts = boo

Hops = chinook, centennial, cascade, simcoe

Yeast = US-05

This would be an IPA

Now now Kyle didnt you use Oats in your stout :P they are considered adjuncts

And based on mine and your list looks like a Cascadian Ale may be in the works (Black IPA)

I wonder if a bit more context should be placed around this  (I NEED RULES)?  Like style first and foremost and perhaps a reason for said brew?

What about a collective Winter Warmer/Barley wine (read open source) recipe that could be served at a Christmas party held this year?  Ummm.

Marris Otter

Crystal 60,Chocolate Malt

Black strap molasses

EKG, Hallertauer

S-04

My Idea was to take the most commonly used ingredients from each member No specific style but brew a specialty Ale Could be a winter warmer could be anything really once I have a large enough list of common ingredients then at that point based on what they are we can Formulate a recipe based on the findings

I'm down with the WW/BW concept. Occurs to me that either could be pretty damn tasty by next xmas...

Barleywine is a great Idea and would bottle conditioning this be a good idea ? maybe in Maudite bottles and with each paid member getting a bottle :)

well "each paid member getting a bottle" depends on us being able to modernize the current liquor laws, since we follow them.

and "Now now Kyle didnt you use Oats in your stout  they are considered adjuncts" yes, you are correct, I also like brown sugar, molasses, and some other stuff.
