About to start heating water on a 5 gallon batch of Oatmeal stout. I'm teaching a friend how to brew, which is why I'm starting so late in the day.
 
I am going to brew tomorrow. A red winter ale, with cinnamon and nutmeg . If time allows, a bourbon barrel porter.
 
Just brewed a strong Porter yesterday. The plan is to add cherries in secondary. OG was 1.070, should finish somewhere around 7% if my experience holds true.
 
Brewing this Sunday for the first time since July. Been busy with work and visiting family. Going to try a scharzbier for the first time.
 
Doing a batch of Imperial IPA Sat.

I ordered a cheapy outdoor 3 burner system last night from Amazon. It will be here Tuesday, so I will do a milk stout next Wed.
 
Trying my first Stout Sat with my neighbor also brewing his first stout.
Chocolate Peanut butter Stout for me and Chocolate raspberry Stout for him.
Looking forward also maybe crackn one Xmas Day.
 
Kicked a keg of pale ale yesterday after 10 days on tap so I guess I'll have to brew some more (lots of guests for the long weekend meant a lot of beer served...). Will use wy1469 instead of notty though, add an ounce of hop to the dry hop and sub the pound of munich malt for a pound of wheat malt (the beer was a tad too malty). I feel I'm getting really close to nailing this recipe.
 
Motueka hopped dark ale and a Cascade Pale ale, both of which are getting served at a party in 2 weeks time.

Fingers crossed
 
Brewing up a crowd-pleaser, 10 gallons of Strong Scottish Ale (Innis & Gunn clone). Combining that with 10 gallons of my Christmas Ale. Going to be a very busy day Saturday. Hopefully, I'll finish by game time. Go green! Go white! Go MSU!!
 
My brother in law wanted a birthday present, and as a nice compliment, he chose one of my own beers, brewing it this weekend so it's ready in time.

Isn't 1C a tad cold? 😉
 
I'm making a clone of Founders Dirty Bastard tomorrow. I'm going to add spices to half It at packaging for my Christmas Beer Merry Krampus Ale.

Late night brew session tonight. Brewing a 100% Pearl malt ale for an experiment my brew club is doing. Everyone brews the same hop bill and uses the same yeast (bitter with Magnum, ferment w/ WY1098). Same mash temp, target OG, IBUs, etc. Only variable is we all chose a different base malt and it must be 100% of the bill.

Keep us posted on which turns out the best
 
Just finished an Oddsides PA. Getting ready to transfer to carboy. All temps to drop then pitch.
Then football the rest of the day.
 
Well, no brewing today, but I did just finish bottling up 55 bottles of a robust porter with cacao nibs and vanilla beans. The sample I tasted was amazing. Can't wait to get it carbed and chilled.
 
Just finished Caramel Amber Ale. Awesome brew day the weather is beautiful and everything went so smoothly I am now double checking my notes to see if I missed anything.

Its in the fermenter in swamp cooler at this moment.
 
Made a russian imperial stout and then used the grist for a parti-gyle dry stout. Two for one (plus a little dme...)!

Also, Brauer, that Merry Krampus label is awesome!
