Set up for a Pale Ale tomorrow. Maris Otter with a little Carastan, and a touch Special B & Carafa III. Couldn't bring myself to brew an ESB. Wyeast 1007, with Centennials FWH, Cents and Magnum at 30, more Cents at 10 and 0. I have hopes for this one........... 1.053 and 55 IBUs more or less..........

Planning on brewing my holiday ale this weekend, it will be a dark ale with a boil down of the first runnings for more complex caramel flavors then fermented with a Belgian yeast.

Ten gallons of a hybrid ale that will have a base of golden promise, some amber and brown toasted malts and Alt yeast. Not sure what I am going to do about hops yet but have plenty of options, hoping to brew this up Friday if I get the time.

I did a boil down on my scottish 80/- this year. keg just kicked. at first it was a little much but with some time it smoothed out and was very nice. it was often described as slightly maple syrup like by people who tried it. I think this will go nicely with a belgian yeast.denny's rye IPA this weekend for me. as close to the book as I can get it!

Today I'll be making Denny's Waldo Lake Amber Ale for the upcoming Manty Malter's Waldo Lake Amber Clone War competition in December -- only 6 weeks away, so I'd better get moving! See link for details. I have made nearly every BJCP style there is, but have not made an American amber ale since batch #2 in 1999, which turned out pretty crappy, but I am an infinitely better brewer now, so this should be a really good experience.I've also been on a French/Belgian/wild ale kick lately. Recently bottled a biere de garde that turned out fantastic, and the saison is fully conditioned and ready to bottle. I'm considering purposely throwing some Lacto bacteria into a few bottles of the saison, just to see what happens (maybe it won't work, but that's okay). And next up after the amber ale will be a koyt-style gruit ale with sweet gale, mugwort, yarrow, cardamom, and cloves. Yummy yum yum, I just can't wait to make that, it sounds so unique! It's my own recipe, but is based on the Dutch Jopen Koyt recipe from 1407, which I have never tasted but is supposedly awesome, so I can just imagine how close mine will be and how good it could taste, if I do it right. :Crossing fingers:

5 gallons of my robust porter on Saturday. Still tweeking this one so until I get it right it's 5 gallon batches. This is the beer I'm adding beer gas to my keezer for. Really looking forward to having this one on a nitro pour, if it's as good in my mouth as my brain imagines I may have to change my pants Beach

Brewed a stout today and looking forward to brewing an APA tomorrow. Planning to keg my brown porter tonight.

Had a slight change in my plans no Holiday Ale yet, instead I'm brewing a Pumpkin Ale right now. Also kegged my 100% Munich Alt and racked my Session IPA to secondary.
