Sorry I can't be there everybody. Sounds like it will be a great day. A few instructions come with my brews, so I figured I would just post it here. My two brews are labeled with a 1 and A. One is brewed with White Labs Wit yeast and the other with the wild yeast I harvested from Palisade...

I am having no luck swapping hours and may not be available until after 10 now. Also, I'll have to give you my Wit experiment instead of the session IPA. I brewed two wits, one with commercial yeast, and another with a yeast I isolated off a Palisade peach last year. The wild yeast seems to...

I think I will give a shot at a session IPA or whatever you would like to call it. I have some Calypso hops I really want to try out. Downside is that I work at 1pm on the 27th. I will ask around and see if I can swap shifts. If so, I can be around from 4 on.

Sounds great! I have been slacking on my brewing duties of late. Too much yard work to ignore. If I can get it in early enough, I would love to make my kölsch. Otherwise, I may try my cream ale or my mango wheat. I'll decide soon. Probably.

Agreed. On the beer front, I have only been able to sample a few so far, but I have been really pleased thus far. I can't wait to keep working through the list.

I went all out and labeled just in case. That said, this is the first time I have ever done so. Just thought it would be fun and a bit more festive. I managed to eke 44 bottles out of the batch, minus a few "tastes" before.

I should be in for 1pm on the 8th. My wife has a work party, but I think that is later that evening. Sounds like this could work out well!

I'm in!

I am working on the 1st, but I can either ask my wife to drop bottles off or try to get a personal day. Strange sounds great. I have never actually been there. As for the beer, I added my spice tincture last week. Time to carb up and get it ready to bottle. Smells great right now!

I'm in!

Cool. That Northern Brown works well for spices or fruit. I have used it before. My new stout recipe is tasting good. I'll re-brew it soon and get to work on my own spice mix.

Thanks. Un-derailed. Still throwing that out there, though. I know Great Divide does a monthly meeting with a brewer where they bring out a few experiments and encourage discussion. Usually degrades into a bunch of people talking, but if you work at it, it can be a great experience. That...

Count me in for the spiced bourbon stout!

Heh, nice. Did you enter? I just dropped my cream ale and mango wheat off yesterday. I just started competing myself and have found that regardless of what I have sitting around the fridge, I enter it all. I don't care about the prize so much, but the feedback can be great. That said, it...

I am definitely down for a local 12 beers of Christmas. Does anyone have an idea about what they would like to brew? Some of them should be in a carboy soon. I live in Golden and have also had some trouble getting into a club. Most of the clubs that meet nearby or fit my schedule seem to have...
