I'm doing a Cream Ale extract this weekend, but SWMBO says I have to wait until Monday. I did bottle my Saison and rack my Caribou Slobber, though.

Looking forward to January; planning my first AG.
 
Chilling an all Belma hopped IIPA. 5 oz of late additions + 2.5 in the hop rocket. To be dry-hopped with a few oz also. There will be no question as to the flavor/aroma profile for this new hop very soon.
 
Thinking about brewing either an American Barleywine or a Dark American Lager. I really want to brew the barleywine, but even though I know it's coming and even though I know it's not a reflection of the quality of the wort, 65% efficiency still looks depressing. I know I'm being silly, but it is what it is.
 
Doing Smoke on the Porter. A lightly smoked porter. Mash is going right now, so is the smoker with a nice pork butt for some pulled pork action alter on today.
 
Heating up strike water right now for a 10 gallon batch of Oatmeal Stout, 5 gallons will be kegged with oak cubes that have been soaking in Bulleit for 6 months and the other 5 gallons is getting soured with Roselare and a potpourri of sour dregs.
 
Yoopers Dead Guy brewed yesterday. Hit my mash temp, final volume and OG perfectly. It is fermeting like a madman.
 
Brewing Yoopers oatmeal!

Waiting on my Founders Breakfast Stout clone to hit boil ... been too distracted with the brew today and it is taking entirely too long! On the plus side, I did get another 5 gallon batch of Tempranillo cabernet in the fermenter earlier.
 
Brewed up a witbier mini-mash today, and switched my IIPA over to secondary.

I'm sure this is said a lot, but the thing I hate most about brewing is the damn WAIT until I can drink it. But I guess if it were as easy as Kool-Aid, it wouldn't be much of a hobby/passion.
 
Just made a 2l starter for my West Coast IPA. Reusing harvested yeast from Bell's. Brewing tomorrow.
 
Just put an Oatmeal Stout in the primary. Added a little espresso to kick it up a notch. This is my first brew day re-pitching yeast. Hope it turns out as good as it smelled on the stove...
 
Making a starter on Tuesday for a lager I'm brewing on Saturday. I just kegged a Bohemian dunkle, my Ufleku clone recipe.. Tasted pretty good. I can't wait to tap that baby in a month or two...
 
I know it's not the weekend but, I took the day off and i'm enjoying a double brew day. I'm starting with a Calypso, Maris Otter Smash, and then brewing my favorite porter recipe. The best way I can think of ending a long weekend.
 
Got 11 gallons of Munich Helles in the mashtun as we speak.

5.5 is getting Wyeast 2487 Hella Bock
5.5 is getting Kolsch yeast.
 
Got a big, rich, chocolatey oatmeal stout mashing right now. This will help me cope with the coming cold months.
 
Dry Irish Stout for my second brew. Hoping to control fermenting temps better than I did my first.
