We're going to try a sweet stout, split into two batches, with half of it becoming a sweet cherry stout.

Just started 5.5 gallons of my "Winter Warmer":
10 lbs Light DME
2 lbs Dark Clover Honey
1 lb Corn Sugar
1 lb Crystal 60L
12 oz Crystal 120L
6 oz Chocolate Malt
2 oz Roasted Barley
1.75 oz Galena (11 AA) 60 min
2.5 oz Willamette (4.8 AA) 30 min
2 oz Willamette 15 min
Safale US-05 (2 packs)
With an OG of 1.113 this will pack a punch but probably won't really be ready until the new year.
In the meantime I'm doing a heavy-ish Bitter and a Robust Porter which will be ready much sooner.

I'm thinking I'll finish this week off with a couple (2) ciders for the holidays and an ale.
Lagers will have to wait for another month or so.

Well it is far from cool in September here but I only have A Pliny Clone on the docket this month so far. I have plenty of beers in the hopper already though.

Cool weather?! It's like 100°F outside. You mean it doesn't stay hot until mid November everywhere?

I'm way late, but I'm doing an Octoberfest this weekend.

Don't feel bad, I'm doing Ed's Oktoberfest on Friday. The fall docket also includes a Nut Brown and an ESB. I cracked open an Sweet Stout yesterday and it was fantastic. Needs a bit more time, but it's going to be nice to kick out back with that in the fall.

i really love brewing in the fall & spring, just something about the cool early mornings and stuff.
i haven't been brewing much, too busy. so two weeks ago i brewed my American Wheat, that i'll be adding some local honey too and then i brewed a hoppy American Amber. this weekend i'm brewing up a Christmas ale (maybe to late?!?!) and i noticed that Beersmith only calls for 1st runnings, so i've decided to use the 2nd runnings for something. bought some challenger and EKG hops today and english yeast...not sure what my gravity will be but i'm ready to make it anything from a ESB to an IPA, haha. but i'm assuming it'll be around 1.050 ish?!? we'll see.
