We enter double digits for our number of picks in this homebrewing beer challenge. We go to the Jar to randomly pick beer styles and then brew them for you. This series has been quite entertaining for us. We hope you share in our quest to brew excellent versions of the many styles of beer.

Let’s see what the Jar of Destiny has in store for us in this episode.

Our Picks

John’s Pick: 19B – California Common

All praise the Jar. Here’s a style that needs our homebrewing challenge. With the closing of Anchor Steam last year, who will be the keeper of the flame for Steam Beer? It’s homebrewers like us!

The main points for this beer will be to get the Northern Brewer hops profile right. In addition, the fermentation will need to be on point with the right yeast strain and the right temperature. Can’t wait to put forth a worthy attempt for The Dash!

Mike’s Pick: 1A – American Light Lager

Easy to drink but hard to brew correctly at home, this style should pose a medium-level challenge for Mike. He is already thinking through his strategy after the pick. His favorite macro-brewery light beer is Miller Lite. If he can produce a top-notch clone of that beer, he will win this challenge.
