    10 gallons of Crocodile Ale - it's a pale ale with Maris Otter and Mosaic.

    Almost a SMaSH but used Nugget for bittering and added some Carapils.

    7 days into primary right now - checking gravity this evening. I expect FG of 1.011. 3 more days, then dry hop with even more Mosaic. 5 days with the dry hops, then cold crash for a day, then adding gelatin for clearing.

    Can't wait for this one - my buddy Lyle thought it up and I designed the recipe. We're splitting this batch.

    I just cooked up 5 gallons of American Pale Ale today with Cascade all the way. We'll see how that compares to the previous batch with Northern Brewer bittering hops.

    Right now:

    1 1/2 gallons of Smash with Marris Otter and Summit hops
    5 gallons of cream of three crops ale (thanks BM)
    5 gallons of BM's Sacred Summit but renamed to Magnum Forced since neither LHBS carries Summit hops, which I found out after mixing all the grains and then looking for the hops.:eek:
    Magnum was the alternative suggested by the owner of the LHBS.

    Not quite six gallons of NB Plinian Legacy now that it is in secondary and five-ish gallons of NB Honey Wheat for a friend's birthday in secondary today as well. Nothing in primary and probably won't be for a week or two simply because we are out of space in the overflow (spare tub) chamber.

    Brothers in arms ... 2 1/2 gallons of English Pale Ale and 2 1/2 gallons of Irish Stout.

    Pale is looking great! I can see the entire sediment on the bottom. Haven't had one this clean without cold crashing/gelatining it.

    Got 5.5 gallons of IPA, i'm dry hopping today. Amarillo, Warrior, Chinook, Cascade, and Citra. It already smells and tastes unbelievable. Dry Hopping it will bring it up to 11!

    I use the Montrachet Wine Yeast he recommended, bought a 10pk for cheap and have worked through 4 already. Yes, always the sulfur smell for the first week or so. I usually let it sit in the carboy for a good 6-8 weeks before bottling and then let it sit for another 4 months. Its a long process but if you keep making it eventually you're gold.
    Much easier and quicker than a full-on brew day and delicious product, can't go wrong!:mug:

    Got 5 gallons of a Hefe, just a 50/50 Wheat/Pilsner @ 62F following Jamil's advice...and another 5 gallons of a clone ive made of a local brewpub's(McMenamins) Ruby Ale which is one of its most popular...its basically just a pale beer with a bit of white wheat and a # of Raspberry puree..its damn tasty.

    These are the last two beer's needed for my wedding in just over 2 weeks...so this weekend im going to Keg both so they have time to carb.
    Will have 4 beers total, those two plus a Vanilla Porter and an IPA made entirely with my home grown hops(Columbus/Newport/Cascade) that came out pretty damn good...waiting to dry hop in the keg on that until a week before probably.

    Yeah I just cracked a bottle of my 3rd batch last week, used the redstar premier cuvee for this one. Think I like it better than the Montrachet actually

    I'm feeling rich: I have two batches going, for the first time since I started brewing last year. One is Shipwrecked Saison. Love that recipe....

    The other is a lawnmower saison for summer thirst quenching. It's about half the grain bill of the Shipwrecked, with no candi sugar. I'm hoping I didn't over-bitter it; I added 1 oz of Willamette at 60 minutes and 1 oz at 10 minutes. Ah well, I'm planning to dry hop it with Saaz anyway, so maybe any extra bitterness will blend in.
