Blending Beers: Share Your Experiments

Never really had the desire to blend beers together. Some may be good but I'm sure a lot are putrid.

 

Pumpkin beer + vanilla porter = terrific.
Not always easy to pull off, but New Glarus Raspberry and Chocolate Yeti is another big winner.

 

Harpoon used to do some awesome blends in their tap room. I had Raspberry Hefeweizen + Chocolate Porter (might have been stout) for a delicious liquid chocolate raspberry cake.

 

I have 4Beans. I have Pumking. Thank you.

 

I don't buy beer in enough quantity to ever come close to contemplating this

 

fruit ales and stouts are common combo's, and for good reason: somewhat predictable and (given decent components) tasty blends that are often superior to one or both (think, mediocre stout and fruit beer) ales. How common" ... I've seen Black & Blue (stout or porter + blueberry ale) on the menu at several pubs.

 

I blend sours all the time. The last was consecration mixed with rose de gambrinus.

 

Backyard + Vanillla Rye = Yum (thats my favorite)

 

Did a vert of The Abyss, and blended different years with the leftovers.....that was a lot of fun 2010 and 2014 50/50 blend is really good haha

 

Well I tried Boom Sauce which is supposed to be a blend of there 3 base IPA's and well wasn't impressed and am hopping for some improvement.

 

I've done Creme Brulee and Warlock.

 

50/50 Flying Monkeys Chocolate Manifesto with Lindemans Framboise, was glorious dessert in a glass.
50/50 Fullers London Pride/London porter, smoothest B&T I've ever had.

 

About a 50/50 of Rubaeus and Founders Imperial Stout was delicious.

 

I blended the Sculpins, about 30% habanero 70% grapefruit, worked out nice

 

I like buying the available boxed lambics and making my own blends rounding it out with other shelf lambics. There are some amazing blends to be had balancing the between the strongest flavor profiles of certain lambic.

 

Sour Monkey and Oro de calabaza

 

"I don't always blend beers, but when I do - I don't."

In all seriousness, if I ever happen to have both in hand simultaneously (which is a really an impossibility), I would like to try the "ultimate black and tan" with DFH 120 Minute IPA and World Wide Stout.

 

Rubaeus is a great beer for blending. Works with stout and when added in small quantities to berliner weisses

 

Edmund Fitzgerald and Ghost Face Killah.

These were leftovers from a beer bread experiment that did not turn out as well as I had hoped. After I mixed them together and tasted the resulting swill, I dumped it into a pot of chili.

 

i've had beer pong cups with both natty light and genny creame. besides that no.
