English Old Ale here...

 

[mvdilts]

that sounds like a GREAT idea - not sure what I'll brew yet but brew I will...rather than go shopping for sure.

 

[NTOLERANCE]

Should be something Black....well....guess it doesnt matter. Just seems to be the right theme

Good point, maybe I'll name it Black Friday Stout...

Anyway, making a Gluten-Free Double Chocolate Oatmeal Stout with my dad, this ought to be fun.

In honor of the harvest, BM's Cream of Three Crops,

 

[petep1980]

I'm tempted to make an Irish Red Ale and blast Black Friday Rule all friggin day!!!!

 

[MultumInParvo]

Brew on black Friday? I will be out with SWMBO shopping for a good chunk of the day. Spending time with the family for another chunk. And, recuperating from the 15,000 calories I consumed the day before.

No room for brewing in there.

Plus, my equipment will be 600 miles away. I guess that is my best reason.

 

[DrinksWellWithOthers]

Brewing a vanilla porter on Friday or Saturday. I'm not sure yet as I have to work on Friday and its the first time in probably 10 years. I already miss that 4 day weekend...

 

[KellyK]

Brewing an Eisbock. We're calling it Chuck Norris. Chuck Norris doesn't do shopping.

 

[Whut]

I could brew I guess but that's the day the outside Christmas lights go up. They've been going up that day since our daughter was born. As for shopping, there's nothing I want or need that would drag my a$$ out to fight those crowds. Besides, nothing's better than putting up lights and drinking a couple of home brews!

 

[MGAZ]

I'll be brewing my first all grain. Shiver Me Bitters.

 

[MultumInParvo]

As long as its in that order. Other wise it could get messy... :fro:

 

[BenS]

I'll be brewing. As long as my order to brewmasterswarehouse gets here. I hope, I hope, I hope. Either Edwort's porter I've heard so much about or a mint chocolate stout for the holidays.

 

[NTOLERANCE]

I'll be brewing. ...........a mint chocolate stout for the holidays.

NOw that sounds yummy..

 

[skeeordye11]

No brewing for me, I will actually be volunteering to work a cask ale event at a local brewery. Much better than shopping!!!

 

[claphamsa]

Ill be working! actually Ill be sitting in my office, shopping on the interwebs.... but its called work right?

 

[flyangler18]

I'll be working because the 27th is an ad deadline for the magazine. Depending on how quickly things come in that day, I may well be brewing.

 

[Ness]

I'll be bottling my Christmas Ale and a Nut Brown that should keep me busy enough.

 

[Marko73]

I will be bottling a spiced Christmas Ale and then a Winter Ale for New Years. Then it is off to the annual day after Thanksgiving afternoon Boston Bruins game. . ..

 

[ibbones]

Sorry, shopping here.

 

[BA_from_GA]

well, will be forgoing the usual tradition of the shooting range with the men in my family for celebrating thanksgiving with my wife's fam, so no brewing either.

bummer... except, not cause i get 2 fantastic meals in 2 days and double the leftovers!! wohooo

 

[HBRunner]

I will probably be brewing an IPA, and staying away from the shopping centers!

[ISLAGI]

I'll probably go shopping, just so I can save money to spend on more brew gear!

 

[humann_brewing]

oh yeah and the brewing thing, I have family in town and will not be brewing, I will the following weekend though.

 

[NTOLERANCE]

Yeah, but I have some hops from my back yard I will dry hop with. Need to use them up. Sunbeams.

 

[darknova306]

I'll be kegging my Amarillo IPA on Black Friday, and possibly brewing a chocolate stout or an imperial IPA. Not sure yet.

 

[phrogpilot73]

Brewing the Oyster stout recipe from the BYO article. With the Hops tweaked a little to my liking. Maybe the next day I'll brew another batch. It'll be awesome. Turkey, football, beer, naps, and making beer. What a great holiday weekend!
