Actually I have been brewing for 18 years and my two best favorites to bottle are a Barley Wine called "Bacchus Ale" (full bodied beer with alcohol content close to wine) and a clone of Mac & Jack African Amber (recipe from The Replicator). I am using a defunct recycled old 15 gal stainless keg for a brew pot... allows me to do double batches at one time. (total 10 gal of beer instead of 5 gal).
