Added the cherries to the Belgian dubbel. Had to take a pint of beer out first because the fruit wouldn't all fit. Can't wait to drink it after work tonight!

Husband's HB 2015 Imperial Pumpkin ale. Excellent.

It does remind me of a s'more...

Birthday Bomb! From Prairie Artisan Ales. Seemed appropriate for today.

6380 + 2.5 spiced cherry dubbel = 6382.5

Spiced cherry dubbel boiling now.

Brewed my birthday beer - a spiced cherry dubbel (I have found overnight mashes to work well for my limited time to brew) from the 12 beers of Christmas. Looking forward to tapping it Christmas Day.

Picked up the yeast and grain for my Christmas beer, which I'll be brewing Friday. I'm doing a 2.5 gallon spiced cherry dubbel. It'll be called 4. There will be 4 pounds of cherries added, and 4 is one of the LOST numbers (all my beers are a refernece to LOST, thanks to my awesome tap handle...

Hotel beer

HB Strawberry milkshake IPA (Kate)

So far, a schwarzbier, a mango blonde, a RIS, and a strawberry milkshake IPA. Next up is a spiced cherry dubbel (the same one from the 12 beers of Christmas), which will be tapped on Christmas Day. I'll probably try to get a SMaSH in soon so I have something on tap.

Tapped Kate. Delicious strawberry milkshake ipa.

Finally kegged the Kate - Strawberry Milkshake IPA. When I was debating how to add the strawberries, someone asked me to update what I did. I ended up gently lowering 3 pounds of whole frozen strawberries into my fermenter in a sanitized grain bag, along with the vanilla bean soaked in vodka...

Milkshake Deams with Tangerines. Not a fan of the stuff floating around in the beer. I personally don't find that appealing. Taste is pretty good though.

Sampled the Kate and decided she's ready to keg. Will likely keg after work tonight.
