I plan on brewing a red rye IPA either Friday or Saturday night. It was going to be a DIPA, but with all the troubles so much trub is giving me using that much grain (I use the Mr. Beer LBK as a FV, remember) I might just drop this down to a nice 6-6.5% beer instead. I dunno, still deciding.

It's getting close to the time of year where I'll be moving to night brews. I already work night shift and am used to the hours. Much cooler, and there's something special about wrapping up a brew night with a cool sunrise.
 
Picked up supplies to brew two batches this weekend.

Another Bee Cave Hefeweizen (the last batch lasted two weeks before it was gone), and a base wheat beer that I'll split after primary and add different fruits and such to each.
 
I'll be bottling a gallon batch of ginger beer this weekend, I believe.
Once that is out of the carboy, I'll be filling it with hard root beer.
I have a batch of white grape cherry wine that is going to be half-
fermented this weekend; I'll probably add a cup or two of simple
syrup to that to up the ABV.

I also have an experiment going on right now...two cups worth of
mead. If that finishes this weekend, I'll be putting on a few cups of
coffee wine...maybe a pumpkin spice flavor to put away for the
fall.
 
Brewing a Belgian Blonde with Dry Belgian Ale yeast from Yeast Bay.

Haven't used it before, quite excited.
 
Need to get an English Brown Porter brewed to stay on schedule; hoping to get a half-batch variant wheat wine brewed over the course of 2-3 evenings next week, once my Northern Brewer order arrives.
 
Kegging a Maibock and brewing a Vienna lager inspired by Bluepoint Toasted Lager using some of the yeast cake from the Maibock.
 
Planning on getting my first brew session in this weekend, an American Light extract kit. I currently have 2 gal of JAOM that has been in the primary for 6 weeks, cleared up rather nicely.
 
Doing a 2.5 gallon Belgian Single tomorrow with Ardennes that will be a starter batch for a larger Belgian IPA with some local honey. :rockin:
 
I'm brewing an irish red ale from Brewing Classic Styles tomorrow. I'm brewing with my girlfriend and my friend and we're also making tacos for lunch, can't wait for tomorrow!
 
Scottish 70 Schilling tomorrow morning.

2 others buds brewed the same last weekend.
One with Maris Otter, the other with Halcyon.
Mine will be with Golden Promise.
Same yeast (WLP028) and same hops.

Gathering in early May to compare brews.
Should be cool to see the difference between the base malts and brewing styles.

Kegging up a Sarah Hughes Dark Ruby tomorrow.
 
If it's not too windy or cold, we hope to do a 5G AG Sierra Nevada Pale Ale on Sunday for our Spring Brew. Technically the equinox is a half hour before midnight here on Saturday, but WTH...We've got a kegging system on the way so gotta build a pipeline!!!
 
Just finished mashing in for a Hoegaarden clone, second batch on my new eherms system. Hope to hit my numbers better this time, extra volumes throwing me off a bit.
 
Brewed a German ale. It was going to be a light Munich/hallertau mittelfrih smash but the lhbs didn't have enough so I had to improvise a bit.

7lbs Vienna
2.5 lbs light Munich
1 lb dark Munich
1oz hallertau mf fwh
1oz @ 20min
 
I'm doing a rye IPA today I brewed the same recipe in the fall with a broken collarbone and we called it Rye Can't Lift This. Today's is Rye Can.

It's one of my better brews. Going to increase the rye and play with my steeping hops a little. Mosaic Amarillo and maybe FF to round it out.
 
Parti-gyle/double brew day yesterday. The first runnings were mixed with sugar to make a Belgian Golden Strong. The second runnings, plus cherry wood smoked malt in the sparge, made a Smoked Helles.
 
Brewing two batches of a blonde recipe this weekend for my sisters wedding. Can't decide if I'm going to do back to back brews or two days
 
Last weekend did an American Wheat, and IPA.

Did another IPA tuesday night.

Yesterday I brewed a Chocolate Milk Stout and an American Amber Ale.
