    What unique Fusion Styles would you like to see that haven't been brought forward yet?

    For clarification, here are some fusions that have come out in recent years...

    - White IPA: Belgian Wit x American IPA
    - Black IPA: Schwarzbier x American IPA

    I'd like to see more Imperial Brown Ales like Lagunitas WTF and more IPL's.

    There are still a few colors that aren't IPA yet. Blue IPA, Purple IPA, Pink IPA....

    May not be a hybrid, but do they make a cherry smoked porter?

    I'm pretty sure that's what Hoppin' Frog's Naked Evil is. That categorize it as an "English Barleywine" on here, but the label definitely says "Belgian Style Barley Wine Style Ale" - I wasn't a big fan of it... but you might want to give it a try...

    The craft beer scene has too few human body yeast beers.

    Hoppin' Frog Naked Evil is a Belgian-style Barleywine aged in whiskey barrels. It's really the only one I've ever had or come across though..

    Midnight Sun M, but that's considerably more rare. Some quads could be considered to be in this class, which is where the blending of styles gets complicated -- just how different would the new style be? Extra-strength triples might ultimately be closest. I had an aged Damnation 23 awhile ago that really tasted like an oaked barleywine with some minor Belgian notes instead of the other way around.
