Category Question...
Posted: Mon Apr 27, 2009 9:12 pm
So I have a question - I have an extract-based Honey Brown - similar to perhaps a J.W. Dundee's Honey Brown, but with a little more bite to it. It is Amber LME, a little bit of Crystal, Black Patent, and Chocolate Malt, has Honey and Willamette hops. It has a little nuttiness, more caramel flavor, and came out a very copper-side-of-brown color.
I am guessing it would fall normally into BJCP category 10C - American Brown Ales, but I am curious if the addition of honey into the equation automatically moves it into the 23 - Specialty Beer category. Then again, it may naturally fit in a different category I'm not even thinking of.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Cameron
