I ordered the grains from Northern Brewer for my next 2 batches, a pale ale that I will hop to with in an inch of its life and a low abv saison I want to make using locally produced honey along with some other stuff. I also received my grain mill today for Adventures in Hombrewing, haven't had a chance to try it out yet but I will buy some grain this weekend so I can mess with the setting. And I finally decided to order a portable kegging set up for taking beer parties and family gatherings using my birthday money.

Decided to brew an IPA this week, sampled my bourbon barrel stout, delabled some bottles from Superbowl festivities and caught myself wishing my life away hoping February 17th would come faster so I can RDWHAHB. I'm waiting for my English Brown Ale to condition and reach it's yummiest. It's my first, you see.

Brewed a 5gal extract of what I call Caiden Shuffle. It is basically a Belgian Wit with some tweaks. The current one in the fermenter has White Labs 400 for yeast. I also have a Wyeast smack pack for the next batch. Curious to see the difference. This is everyone's favorite so if it appears that I brew this one a lot, it is because it disappears pretty fast.
