Bottling pumpkin ale Monday! Any ideas for a thanksgiving brew that will fit well turkey dinner? I need ideas quick so I can brew and be sure it will be ready for its unveiling.

How's it a kreik without lambic yeast?

I'm trying for the style... I had a brewferm kit two years ago that had dry yeast in it, so it's a close as I can get at the moment without ordering seperate yeast from NB or other brew supply.

Finally going to brew that IPA I've been wanting to brew the last few weeks. I'm shooting for an IPA that's a touch sweeter than your typical commercial.

Pretty much doing the same. I wouldn't normally brew on a Tuesday, but I got some fresh hops and I'm going to try a wet-hopped harvest IPA! Let's hope the hops are still good after 2 days.

I just started a beer that will be a Specialty/Wood-aged beer when all is said and done.

I used something new I found - HICKORY syrup. I've seen a ton of Maple syrup added beers, but thought the Hickory would be a nice , nice change. The hope was to find some hickory wood to add...but at this stage all I have are a few different light and medium toasted OAK. Was hoping for Hickory rather than Oak. Oh well.

Starting OG was 1.063. Happy with that.

I think I will get a chance to brew my Altbier either Friday afternoon or Saturday morning. I've only made it once before but it was one of my best. I really want to get it in the fermenter since I can't keg anymore. I'd love to be drinking this in a month, but looks like it'll be closer to the beginning of November.

If you just brewed it, you have 3-4 weeks, go and find some Hickory to throw in the secondary!

I'm out of the game for a couple weeks until my next batch is ready to keg, currently at capacity.
