I have a mistake I brewed a couple of years ago and turned out great. I am not sure what style it matches up with but it is 5 gals of a dunkelweizen with 4 lbs extra of pils. As a Southern English Brown I won gold and 3rd BOS.
My Oktoberfest is in its last 3 days of lagering
My Christmas Ale is just about done
My Wheat Ale is fermenting away and will be a blue berry wheat in a week
I have 5.5 gals of my Bloody Pumpkin Ale version #5 in the fermenter. Should taste great by Halloween. Smelled like cookies during the boil. 1lb Black Cherries, 8oz Brown Sugar, 8oz Cherry Juice, 90ozs of can Pumpkin, and typical pumpkin spices.
Very nice write up. I like the idea of using jars vs. bags since they are more durable. Now, I only need freezer space. How long are hops good for in a vacuum seal bag? I have some for over 18 months but not always in cold temps.
