A) Try to clone commercial beers
B) have a recipe you feel is dialed in and brew over and over
C) freestyle recipes and play around?
I don't fall into any of these categories at the moment, but I am hoping to fall into the "C" category one day. Right now, I am just brewing recipes from "Brewing Classic Styles" and seeing how the ingredients and yeasts fit together to make each style. I will be brewing a Belgian dark strong ale this weekend, which is my first Belgian beer. This will be batch 14 in 2016 and batch 24 overall.

When I went on a belgian kick, I brewed a patersbier (single) that was a SMaSH (Pilsner/Saaz) and then used that yeast cake to brew a tripel and then used that cake to brew a quad. It was the Chimay strain (WY1214) and they all turned out splendid. I aged the quad for 6 months in a keg under 10psi, put it on tap for a while over the July 4th weekend, and just put it back in storage until probably November/December.
I think the patersbier was my favourite of them all though just because I could have a beer or two and still function.
