Looks like we have at least 3 if not 4 people interested in the second list, so I'm going to go ahead and start it up. (modifying post #1)
I've started group #2 and you're in with the quad, you'll be over a year before the shipping starts.I think there's enough interest for a second list seeing as this one filled up a few days. I could tentatively sign up for the caramel quad on if there's enough interest
Welcome to group 2, you'll be over a year prior to shipping.I'd take the spices bourbon stout, if we do a 2nd run of this. Hell, I'll even throw it in my barrel for a few months... my last one (sans christmas spices) come out delicious!
Ohio, the forum update took out the state I guess.Lebanon, PA?
Group 2 baby! Wooo! ThanksWelcome to group 2, you'll be over a year prior to shipping.
All set!Awesome! I'll take the fruitcake old ale...Might throw a few gal on oak to see how it goes. I'll try to brew it in Jan or Feb so it has time to mellow.
This is incredible! I'm going to live vicariously through this thread again.
Or you can Brew the second Honey Ginger IPA?
Damn you're on top of things! I want to brew for mine really bad haha, but gotta wait a little while. Kind of wish there was a summer share or something haha! Just to have something else like this to brew for.This sour is already kicking off some lovely aromas, I'm pretty sure my house culture would eat wallboard at this point.
I vote you go for it. I don't feel I'm quite ready but there is a year before shipment. For an IPA, you can wait to brew until like September/October.My brewing skill is not worthy. Maybe I'll feel brave enough to jump in 2019.
I picked the lambic since I'm lazy, I don't have a thing to do until it's time to add my oak and fruit now. The quart of "bug jug" is doing all the heavy lifting.Damn you're on top of things!

That is an epic thread...If you think it will eat wall board maybe you should join the True Beer movement here. I think its running out of steam so maybe you can fire them back up with some new and inspiring yeast.
Edit: Just found out, sadly, that the thread was locked...no more wallboard brewing discussions allowed.

Flanders red is one of my absolute favorite beer styles, yet with all of the sour and Brett beers I've done, I have no idea why I have never brewed one. I really should get on that.That's cool. I'm actually brewing my first ever sour here in about a week or so. After 6 years of brewing I've finally decided to dive in head first. Doing a Flanders Red. Can't wait to drink it in...March 2019. RIP!!

That's the one that I had planned to do as well. Even bought Roselare blend for it this spring but ended up trying my luck at a Spanish style sidra instead. I have been trying to talk my dad into doing a big sour project like a Flanders but no luck on that yet lolGoing with the 2014 NHC gold medal recipe, sounds simple enough. Just subbing in the Roselare wyeast blend instead of the one listed.

Wow that's super purdy. Do the blueberries stay in there the entire time? I'm new to sour brewing.Very cool, I love Flanders red, I got my first sour fermenting away. Looking forward to it next year about this time. It’s a blueberry sour.

I’m new too, I added them after a month, but have read that I should’ve waited longer. I’ll keep them in there for at least 6 months. Then transfer to bottles for another 6 months. See how it goes.
Wilkommen!Hi All,
While this is my first post, I have been a 'lurking' member since 2014 and recently became a supporting member. I'd love to get involved with the 2nd group of brewers... specifically, I'd like to brew the honey ginger IPA.
(Or, if Zimm9 listens to Jerbrew and wants to do the IPA, I wouldn't mind doing the Gingerbread Ale)
I vote you go for it. I don't feel I'm quite ready but there is a year before shipment. For an IPA, you can wait to brew until like September/October.
Thanks for the encouragement! Maybe I could handle the Abbey Weizen. You're right that there's plenty of time to improve my process before next Christmas. Maybe I can pull it off without disappointing everyone else in the group!
@Brewfessor the IPA is yours.

I'll take the juniper bock for the second list. I'm looking forward to this. By the way I'm in S. Riverside County CA, and San Diego is definitely doable for the get together and ship party
I went 2:1:1 Munich:Rye:'Pilsner a little carafa III for color. The Munich has a deep malty character used at 50% that you're not going to get with MO. I would say for the most part its more rich, a bit sweeter, and really drives the malt forward as apposed to just making it interesting.
I didn't do a decoction, have before and will someday but not for this, but a single decoction wouldn't be too difficult to manage. I do recommend the Bock Lager Yeast WLP833 for this beer though. I had a great experience using it.
You are indeed pretty close to San Diego/LA so its looking pretty good that we can set something up with at least 4 of next year. I hope that works out, it would be a great time.
Got ya!I'll take the juniper bock for the second list. I'm looking forward to this. By the way I'm in S. Riverside County CA, and San Diego is definitely doable for the get together and ship party
