So who's brewing this weekend?

[r8rphan]

Gonna brew up 11G of BM's blonde Ale today... That beer turned out to be pretty dern good after sitting in the keg for a month or two.......

 

[Grantman1]

Mashing for my summer APA this morning... 2row, touch of honey malt, fairly light on the cascades, us-05 - simple and refreshing!

 

[sockozz]

This morning I have going the AHS 20th Anniversary Hefeweizen, and then the IPA. Can't wait to see how they turn out.

 

[Hose]

20 minutes into my boil for a batch of Summer Citrus Wheat.

I have this one in a keg conditioning out for another week since I primed it with corn sugar. The gravity sample tasted very nice. I used S-05 too...

I'm brewing a Beligan style Dubbel for the third time in the past 1.5 month. The first brew my fermenter fell out of the carboy holder and shattered in my garage. The second brew the fermenter temp got a bit out of control and will be soured w/ Brett. Or at least that's what I'm thinking. The third brew today went well. But, i have noticed that my efficiency has gone down close to 10% due to using a power drill instead of my hand crank. Not to happy about that......

 

[BillyBock]

Just pitched yeast on a stout with coffee, chocolate, and blackprinz malts. Add some Yakima magnum and Mt Hood, and we are good to go!

 

[chapa]

I just kegged my brown, racked my all chinook ipa on to an ounce and a half more chinook, and sampled my "damn porter"...all samples were delicious! It's really nice to have so many good beers filling up the pipeline!

 

[Golddiggie]

Got ginger cooking right now for a hard ginger ale batch... Only 3 gallons this time, since it's my first time brewing it, and I could only get about 2.5# of fresh ginger root... Hope to get it to about 12% ABV... :rockin:

 

[modernlifeisANDY]

Finally able to brew - baby shower is out of the way, and it definitely kicked both of my kegs so it's time to restock! Brewing up an English/Asian fusion IPA today, then a raspberry wheat this week, followed by a brown ale once I get my fermenter freed up.

 

[PijanyPole]

Bottle the apfelwein from january and brew another batch of hef.

 

[MBasile]

Brewing up 21A's Bitter American because my local BevMo has been lazy about stocking it.

EDIT: I'm finding brewing to be easier when I DON'T sample a few previous batches during the process. I'm thinking I'll be more likely to clean stuff up immediately after brewing! Weird how that works.

 

[eppo]

Brewing 10 gallons of centennial blonde in saturday.

 

[stubbornman]

Big starter made last night for the Oktoberfest I'm brewing on Friday.

 

[elproducto]

Turns out I'm a bachelor this weekend, so what better to celebrate spring with the planting of my hops, and some brewing.

2 batches (I hope): Green Flash West Coast IPA clone, and a Saison. If I get real adventurous, I'll get the no-boil Berlinerweisse in the fermenter as well.

 

[Scruffy1207]

I haven't really decided what I want to brew yet, I've done an IPA, PA, and Nut Brown, and am looking at my next choices. I will be mulling this over today and tomorrow (freely accepting suggestions). Brewday=sunday

 

[kgraber]

Bottle Irish Summer Ale and Honey Blond Ale Friday.

Brewing AHS Low Carb Ale Saturday and then Karankawa Pale Ale Sunday. Going to be a busy weekend.

 

[Qhrumphf]

Thursday I'm bottling an Irish Red and Saison then making a starter for Friday night's IIPA, and Friday I'll brew the IIPA and make a starter for Saturday morning's California Common. Also a busy weekend ahead.

 

[Stalldaworld]

Signed
Friday bottling Brooklyn breweries chocolate maple porter
Saturday brewing a blond ale possibly with some fruit
All while trying to find another glass carboy and accessories to go with it on the cheap so I can get more batches going at once

 

[lowark]

NB's Nukey Brown - Friday.

 

[EricT]

Stouts are always good this time of year, it will have time to age by the time it starts getting cold again and you feel like drinking something heavier than a IPA/PA.

 

[Hoosier-Brewer]

I'm off Friday and will be brewing an AHS Anniversary ESB.

 

[Mischief_Brewing]

This weekend is family holiday time so I got my brewing done this week. Called out from work yesterday and brewed 10 gallons of Irish red. Stayed up late tonight to do an extract 3-gallon test batch of Czech pilsner. That was my first extract batch in years!

 

[Whippy]

I'll be visiting my mom and them in the mountains of North Carolina for Memorial Day, so I'll be brewing for that event this weekend!

I've already brewed a Kölsch and Biere de Guard "style" beer and will be fake lagering the Kölsch as well as I possibly can using a steady ice and water bath for a couple weeks. I know it's not going to be a true lager, but it might help.

THIS weekend I'll be bottling the Biere and brewing an Irish Red and an ESB. (5 gallon all grain batches)

...BUSY, BUSY, BUSY!

 

[SnallygasterBrewery]

Beautiful weather calls for some refreshing pale ale! Brewing up our pale ale recipe (Centennial/Citra hops, a tiny bit coriander, and a little lemon peel) -- the only difference this time is we're trying a less attenuative yeast strain (WLP051 vs. WLP001) to see how if we like the balance better that way. It was really, really good with a dry finish... but gotta tinker! Came out around 1.005-1.006 last time, this time we're shooting for about 1.010-1.011.

 

[Mustangj]

Just got done brewing a lambic like beer.

 

[runningweird]

I am starting a 2.5 gallon batch of dandelion wine right now after spending the better part of 3 hours cutting the green bottoms off of the flowers. I just malted about 40 pounds of barley, 20 as 2 row, 10 as crystal malt, and the rest as pilsen malt. I plan on making a big belgian beer with it soon.

 

[ayoungrad]

Just bottled 3 gallon batch of pale ale that looks clearer than any beer so far at bottling time. Gotta love BRITA filtered water...

Brewing 4.5 gallons of traditional German Hefe Saturday... great week.
