Not too early at all, at the very least it will give a nice timeline for aging which will make the brew that much better.

I am brewing a pumpkin ale for a mid October serving schedule, will be brewing a spice ale for Thanksgiving in early October to be on tap mid November then brewing an Xmas Ale to be on tap mid December.

We run a close schedule but it is improved tenfold over the last brewer both in process and aging time.
