SWMBO is out of town this weekend so I'm doing a lot of brewing. Brewed a Lagunitas IPA clone yesterday, which is bubbling away this morning. Right now, I have a Deschutes Black Butte Porter clone mashing (I am going to use a gallon of this to test for a coconut porter). Tomorrow, I am doing my Seduce and Destroy Rye-PA, with Bravo, Cluster and Liberty hops, and I'm going to use a gallon of it to make a Rosemary Rye PA, with Chinook and Cascade.
 
I used a vacation day from work yesterday to brew up what I'll probably call "Apocalypse in 9/8" ale. (Obscure Music Reference for 20)

It was supposed to be a mild mannered dubbel, but it kicked my ass the whole way - from running out of water for the batch sparge, not being able to find my special giant metal spoon used just for brewing, and dropping a piece of plastic used in the airation system into the carboy .... blah blah blah..

The yeast shall prevail. This morning I woke up to find it ROCKING hard with a big fluffy, active kraussen. It's ALIVE!!

Now I'll spend a few hours today scraping some black goo off the stove and mopping up the kitchen floor that's as sticky as a movie theater after the kiddie matinee.
 
I'm brewing an ordinary bitter, today if I ever finish my suburban lawn and garden slavery. Need to bottle my second batch of BM's Centennial Blonde, too.
 
SWMBO is in Indonesia, my little one is in Phoenix with the In-Laws.

Time to finally get around to that Oktoberfest, I know I'm a little late on brewing it but better late than never!
 
Brewing a Cali/Belgian pale ale type of thing with some leftover ingredients I need to get rid of. Basically a Saison grist with forbidden fruit yeast and liberally hopped with Amarillo. Should be interesting.
 
Bottling a batch of a Bass "clone" tonight and making my first Tripel tomorrow afternoon.
 
Not brewing. But I just finished bottling seven(ish) gallons of Ed Wort's Haus Pale Ale. I almost missed by brew day three weeks ago due to rain and delayed pitching the wort into half of it for almost a week because I ran out of year. I am calling it "Rain Delay Pale Ale"

Best of luck everyone whose brewing! :mug:
 
Knocked out a batch of sweet potato pie ale this morning. Pumped to crack one open around Halloween. Bottling 4 gals of an american brown and 4 gals of an english brown this week too.
 
it's been a long but successful brew week! Started with a maibock, then a marzen, moved on to a belgian tripple, next a Two hearted clone, and still have to get a rauchebier brewed up. I've got 2 batches of apfelwein going and the ingredients for a hefeweizen.... 40 gallons in my basement... it's going to be a wonderful oktoberfest/Halloween. Most all of those except the apfelwein and 2-hearted were brewers best kits, but the 2 hearted was my first all grain and now I can't stop! :ban:
 
Finished a batch of English dark ale yesterday... I never can tell whether this type of beer is considered an English Strong Ale or an Old Ale....influenced by Fuller's 1845. Who needs categories anyway...it'll be good!
 
Getting ready to heat some water for 10 gal batch of APA.

I'm got done around 12:00 and then transferred my hard cider to Keg. My local cider mill was nice enough to fill a fermentor for me fresh pressed apples. After several months I decided to keg it. It tasted great. I used S04 for yeast.
 
Bottled 5 up my Alaskan Amber clone this morning.
Heating up water shortly for a batch of honey wheat. I'm a little late, but this should be ready for a gathering over Labor Day weekend.
:mug:
 
I'm about to begin brewing up a juniper ale. I lined my mash tun with juniper branches and have a ****load of fresh berries to use like hops. Base of Golden Promise and some wheat. Shooting for a 1.085 on this test batch. Likely just gonna use up some leftover hops and see how it goes.
 
Working until 3am last night put a damper on my getting up early and brewing today plan. Oh well, that's what Mondays are for!
 
Gingerbread ale last night (based on Mosher's recipe). Brown ale base (very low IBU) and added Saigon Cinnamon, Ginger, Allspice and Clove at the end of the boil. Smells AMAZING. really looking forward to this one.
 
Brewing up an Oktoberfest tonight here in VA. First Lager, we'll see what we can do.
