Sunday morning brewer here, doing up my interpretation of 2 Hearted Ale this weekend. Pretty true to the clone thread here on HBT, but with a little Honey Malt. Going to change up the hops on this weekends brew. If I keep changing it I'll have to change the name soon.
 
I brewed the Zombie Dust clone from here on Wednesday, going to brew my house amber tomorrow. Just got done crushing and measuring out the hops. I can't wait. I just felt so pent up this winter that I already told my wife to be prepared. The next couple of weeks is going to be a brewing festival at my house.
 
Brewed a small batch (10L) of Munich/Tettnang SMaSH, pitched with US-05.
 
Finally finished my brew day. Did 5 gal Oaked oat stout. Then took the 1.5 gal left in the tun and boiled down to a gal batch. Then racked 2 gal of cider to secondary and added some lil cutie oranges I've had soaking in vodka the last week. Last but not least, put two fresh gal cider on the leftover yeast cake, with some black tea and brown sugar in it. 9 hours of fun :)
 
I may try my first all grain brew tomorrow...Brew in a Bag pale ale recipe. If the weather is okay here and the kids aren't under foot. Forecast looks like it may have to be 2 pm start. I may put it off. Harder to do it during the week, though...SWMBO gets cranky if I'm not getting other things done during the week.
 
Brewing an APA with citra and cascade. Trying to really work on my process with my brutus system. Last batch didn't go smoothly when it came to recirculating the mash and sparging so I'm really focusing on that.
 
Brewin' a Nut Brown today, an HBT recipe. Looks like sunny & possibly 50's out there this afternoon!!! YEE HAAA! Doors open finally! :ban:
 
Trying something different!
Summer session beer, shooting for 4% ABV and 80 ibu's. High rate of carbonation, brewed exclusively with Amarillo! Got my fingers crossed on this one.


Green mountain high!
 
^sounds good!

Just finished a little 2.5 gallon batch of American Wheat with Apollo for bittering, Sorachi Ace late for aroma/flavor, and juice and zest from four oranges. Nailed a 1.048 OG, should be a nice late spring, early summer beer. The goal is for the Ms. to like it!

Pitched the yeast into 5 gallons of Irish Red about 4 hours ago. Still new at this, so just a basic "kit" put together by my LHBS.

Wish I could try it!

It's springtime! Time to get wheaty and witty. I made a bastardized version of my last wit yesterday. My last jar of 3944 was older than I was willing to chance, so I tossed it and used an alt beer yeast instead. I also didn't have any coriander. So I may just have a wheat beer.

Just to have fun, I kept the OG low because I want to add a couple cups of orangecella that I made to the secondary. That orangecella is pure sugar, alcohol and in your face orange zest. The sugar will get eaten up but hopefully it leaves a better orange flavor than that lousy, shivelled up bitter orange stuff.
 
Did a Serra Nevada Pale Ale clone today. This makes six batches since March 15th, after not brewing for about six months. One of them racked to keg, five still in primaries.

Update: Well, the weather sucked all day Sunday...wet and lots of wind. Not a good combo for brewing. Today was beautiful...but too much else going on. We'll see if I feel like trying to do it tomorrow. After that, the opportunities aren't there for a couple of weeks. Kids' sports practices starting up, birthdays, school, yadda yadda.
 
I'll be brewing ten gallons of IPA with some Conan yeast that I harvested from a few Heady Toppers and ten gallons of an experimental Rauchbier. Should be a good weekend.
 
Doing my first all-grain this weekend. Keeping it simple. Goal is to make a clean hoppy Amber for a buddy of mine. Throwing in some Belgian Special B.
