For me I roll with C.I call all my hoppy beers JWIPA regardless of ABV, grain bill or hops used. The process is similar for all though. My Belgians are all "Friar Brock" regardless of being single, tripel, quad. I've brewed the same beer exactly twice this year, a coconut hefe I call Miami Weisse. I'm on my 19th 5g batch.

I'm essentially the same... I don't name many beers, outside of event, but when I do the name follows the style or concept and not the recipe.

Try to clone commercial beers

---

I think clones are great for new brewers. It gives them a way to get into the hobby and make something that is familiar to them.

The only time I brew a commercial recipe these days is when someone asks me to try and brew a specific beer.

ETA: Going to look at a new fermentation freezer today. Hopefully this thing is big enough. Ready to start brewing again.
