Who's Brewing on St Patrick's Day

And what are you brewing?

I'm brewing a variation of the Lake Walk Pale Ale. My grains were toasted today and I'm kind of stoked about it. I'll be diluting my filtered tap water with distilled by 50% and building it up from there.

Bull

I'm brewing two beers (10) gallons each;
Hefeweizen
Pale ale

BDSA!!!! 10g

And I'm bottling a 9 month old flanders red (mmm just right sour and dk cherry). I think she's ready.

Woot!

Currently 35 minutes left of boiling an Irish Stout does that count? We transfered an Irish Red earlier today, and are celebrating by pre-drinking our holiday!

Doing a caramel amber ale - 5.5 gals.

Racking 8 gals of blueberry mead.

Drinking the first bottle of an IPA that has been carbing.

Starting 6 gals of a Merlot.

Busy day....

Chocolate coffee stout brewing tomorrow

this guy. A saison.

I brewed a Irish strong ale for party's, but will also be brewing a Belgium sour tonight. Prost!

Brewing a Kolsch today.. Not very Irish, but **** it. I was going to be making an Irish red, but the starter needs some more time, while my Kolsch starter is going bananas.

A Saison for me... Just about the fire up he burner.

Who's working all day? This guy.

Brewing on Monday though!

I will be observing St Pattys day by drinking. Brewing an Irish Red tomorrow, most likely with a hangover :cross:

its a glorious day. boil almost complete on my own oatmeal stout recipe. mash efficiency 78%. drinking an ipa. great day. almost good enough to forget that i didn't make a starter.

This AM I finished 10g of a 1.100 Belgian Quad and said wtf, added 1# of choc malt to the spent grains, and ran off another 5g of 1.055 stout.

St Patty Parti-gyle!

I am actually about to brew my second ever batch today. It is a clone of Barney Flats Oatmeal stout from AHS.

Trying to decide. Low alcohol saison or Berliner Weiss.

Just starting the boil on our milk stout!

Just finished cleaning up after brewing a grain bill that i must have ordered when I was really drunk. I'm calling it a blonde ale, but not sure if it fits the category.
