Wanna brew an Irish red PM Saturday. Ohio free fishin is this weekend, so the wife & I might head out to the piers on Sunday. C'mon Opie...let's go feeshin' huh huh huh...

 

[user 198378]

Been a while since I brew anything...so was contemplating going BIG on National Homebrew Day. Was thinking of RIS and something else.

I've brewed variations of a Pale recipe for my last 3 brews so should probably mix it up a bit. Any ideas? What's a Springy brew? Saison? IPA?

 

[The10mmKid]

I'll be brewing Gordon Strong's Barleywine at the LHBS

I'm going Mini-Mash with a 6.6lb LME kicker.

'da Kid

Sounds about right for me too.

 

[monkeyman1000]

I am going to brew the Bee Cave Brewery Kolsch.

 

[GrainToGlass]

Will most likely do a sour wort for a sour red ale. Should be fun.

 

[1977Brewer]

I'm going to split my brew day. Mash in before tee ball, boil after, chill to hop stand temp, drop hops. Transfer and pitch...way later, after my nephew's birthday party. So I'm brewing all day!

 

[BlueHouseBrewhaus]

Irish Red.

 

[Alpotun]

Hoegaarden clone

 

[MarkO22]

Our club is brewing 50 gal. of a Blonde and everyone had to use a different strain of yeast. I am using the Mexican Lager yeast...First time lagering for me hope I don't F*%& it up

 

[Cheesy_Goodness]

One of the brew shops around here is hosting a competition on Saturday. One category for beer, one for wine, and one for "other" (cider and mead).
Nothing huge (I think about 20 odd beers last year) but it was pretty fun last year. Took home a 2nd place in other and a 3rd place in beer last year, going for gold this time

Might brew on Sunday to bolster up the pipeline.

 

[ericbw]

I'm making a blonde this weekend. Didn't realize it was homebrew day, but I finally have the time and it's warm enough!

 

[DrunkleJon]

Hmmm... might as well. Need to decide what to brew though.

 

[dhelegda]

My wife pointed out to me that Avengers 2 is opening today and I should take my son...is it wrong of me to hope he gets in trouble at school today so I don't have to listen to her complain about brewing on National Brew Day tomorrow?

 

[Hello]

I will be brewing after all. Just a saison, recipe is 50% off, it's an added 4th option for NHBD by my local LHBS.

I'm trying to decide what I want to do with the saison. I was thinking strawberry basil or rosemary orange.

Does your son typically get into trouble in school?
BTW, you can take him Sunday. It'll be less of a **** show too I bet! I know, I sound old...I am.

 

[mtyquinn]

I plan on drinking home-brew for national home-brew day. Wish I was brewing.

 

[Evan_L]

Earlier this week I changed my planned recipe from a Summer Ale to:

Pain and Misery Ale

1 steroid medpack
4 tubes hydrocortisone
4 bottles Sarna


Poison Ivy from gardening last weekend putting a damper on brew day. To top it off I can't drink with the steroids so enjoying homebrew is out of the question. Even worse is I miss a pretty big annual beer fest that's walking distance from home. Shoot me now.

 

[Homercidal]

Going to a homebrew gathering where I think there are 4 brews being made. I'm just helping by bringing food and holding a beer glass.

I'll be there to check out some other systems and toss in some hops.

 

[Pyg]

SWMBO is out of town and I am bringing the kiddos to birthday parties.
So I am going to brew early sunday morning.
trying my hand at a hoppy IPA using
Columbus
Citra
Amarillo
Cascade

 

[mauer_62]

maybe with a oatmeal stout

 

[bragona71]

Im brewing the Russian River Row 2 Hill 56 Clone, third batch of this, I and my keg loiterers love it!!

Your name wouldn't happen to be Chris Redfield would it?

 

[SnakeRidge]

I'm brewing up some Red Gold, my Red IPA with mosaic and citra. I just realized that satdiddy is Homebrew Day, so not planned to celebrate HBD.

He's 5 and gets in trouble for talking once or twice a week, nothing serious, but my wife takes his talking very serious.

 

[Themisfitking]

I'm making an APA with rye at Md Homebrew in Columbia Md

 

[BNolt17]

Just finished picking up all of the ingredients for the Extract Honey Blonde that was in the braggot article last week. I was planning on making it sometime in the next week and didn't realize it was National Homebrew Day. I guess I will be making it tomorrow night!!
