Prefered base malt for brewing?

For some British Ales I like GP, for others I like MO. I do like GP for a sweet-malty flavor.

I never know what I'm making until the spirit strikes me. It looks like the new supplier also has some basic 2-row also but I'm interested in something with a little character. I brew fairly frequently but not enough to keep two different types of base malt on hand.
I haven't brewed with Golden promise for years, could be interesting to try. I think I've only ever used it for Scottish ales.
tschmidlin:
I regularly use both Thomas Fawcett Maris Otter and Great Western Northwest Pale Ale (Washington Select) and really like both. I often blend them as well, using more or less of one or the other depending on what I'm going for. If I were you I would get one or the other and then alternate sacks when you start to run low. Best of both worlds :)
morticaixavier:
More than anything else I use GW california select and/or munich (weyermann when I am feeling wealthy and not careing overly about environmental impact and gambrinus otherwise) I'll grab a sack of pils (again, weyermann for the richie rich days and gambrinus or GW others)
udubdawg:
of the ones listed, TF MO and GW NWPA. Add in some Best or Weyermann Pilsner and I could get through just about everything I regularly make.
firedog23:
None from the list. Simpsons Maris Otter is what I can easily get over here in the UK.
