So who's brewing this weekend?

[Tom13a]

Brewing a rye ipa, drinking a Scottish Hb

 

[Apple_Jacker]

Brewed a porter yesterday for the first time.

 

[Amadeo38]

Am excited to brew for the first time in a little over a month. With the birth of our newborn on 2/28, I had brewed two long-aging beers at the beginning of February just in case parenting was hard and I wasn’t able to get back into it. Well, the baby is super chill, that Pilsner is ready to transfer to the keg, and the imperial bacon maple porter is sitting at room temp on oak; so it’s time to brew!

Up on deck - my first brew with Mecca Grade Estate Malts. Going for a malt-forward wheat beer, 4lbs white wheat 4lbs pale ale.

 

[rhys333]

Brewing a bittering-only APA. Planning to either hit it with 2oz Chinook dry hop or 1lb of wildflower honey in primary.

I don't have a photo of the boil, so here's a cat.

 

[Rob2010SS]

Brewed up my first saison this weekend. It's actually the Hi Nelson Hibiscus saison from a user on HBT. Got it in the fermenter around noon yesterday and it's chugging away this morning. Really looking forward to this one.

 

[Andrew Hodgson]

Was going to brew a sour IPA on Sunday but got too drunk on Saturday. So this Sunday it is!

 

[catdaddy66]

I start my vacation on Friday and hope to brew twice. I will need to brew my competition brown ale so it can be ready to judge by 5-19, and then a red ale with flaked rye (1st time using rye!). This will be back to back on Saturday and Sunday. Then, who knows... Maybe a 3rd brew later the following weekend.

I guess this will be a 'brew-cation'!

 

[emcfarden]

Brewing a pineapple wheat this weekend for a birthday party in a couple weeks, hopefully I can get it done!

 

[rjdutch]

Brewing my seasonal lawn mower beer. Cream ale I call Lawnmower Man.

 

[_BullDog_]

Brewing my first lager this afternoon

 

[AF1HomeBrew]

Double batch of Gordon Strong's Flanders Red tomorrow.

 

[BrewMan13]

Planning to do a red rye IPA tomorrow. Inspiration for this beer was to showcase Idaho 7 hops, but I'm adding some citra as well as I've heard numerous times that it's a great pairing. Now I need to get drinking the stuff I already have to free up a space for it!

I used comet with Idaho 7 (technically named '007') and had fantastic results.

Imperial oatmeal chocolate milk stout

 

[day_trippr]

Weekend started early this AM as I'm doing another batch of my imperial chocolate stout...

Pre-boil was on the money for an eventual 11 gallons of 1.107 OG to the fermentors...

[edit] Done and done - one point on the high side
House is all full of chocolate, coffee and roasty notes. Love it!

Cheers!

[edit] I posted that second pic - and noticed I hadn't fit blow-offs to the stout yet! Whoops! Dodged a bullet!

 

[Tom13a]

Nothing better to do on a Friday night than make beer, making a blonde w lime peel and using challenger hops

 

[ThirstyPawsHB]

Oktoberfest completed today. My 1st lager.

 

[catdaddy66]

Getting the grains crushed for my next two brews, a blonde stout and an American brown ale that will be submitted for a brew club competition. When I get home from a very busy day I will get my yeast started.

I will brew tomorrow and Monday. Then a nap is in order.

 

[seatazzz]

Just mashed in on another batch of house lager; heeding judges' comments from last competition, this one will get bittered with Chinook with some late Crystal additions for flavor and aroma. Only negative comment I got was the balance was on the sweet side and could use a bit more bittering hop. Amber from last weekend is about ready to crash, since it's going to get bottled I'm stopping it at 1.020 so might not have to use priming sugar. At least that's my theory and I'm going to try it.

 

[bobeer]

Trying to get a rye beer brewed in time for rye beer month at the club next month.

 

[jturman35]

Brown Ale!

 

[Tom13a]

Revamped my irish red recipe so doing that today. Hoping it’s better than the last, used to much honey malt I believe

 

[humbaba]

pitching yeast for a batch of mead. Nothing fancy, just honey with a few raisins and a clove. I was eyeballing the honey and came up a bit strong (1.165 when I was expecting 1.139 -- small batches are sensitive to some variations) so I'm using a more resistant yeast which should finish ~17% with plenty of sweetness left.

 

[A_McG]

Just wrapped up my first IPA! Hit gravity of 1.064

Mosaic and citra hops at end, and again for dry hopping later. Smells fantastic!

 

[isomerization]

Brewing a dry Irish stout for St Patty’s day!

(Probably won’t be ready in time)

 

[Hardtime]

This weekend is the 30th anniversary of my first brew, which my beer logbook shows as an Amber Ale on "15 MAR 89" using Munton & Fison Amber Hop Flavored malt, corn sugar, salt (?) and lager yeast -- I had no idea what I was doing, but I didn't have all the excellent knowledge here at Homebrewtalk to draw from!

Brewing a SMaSH IPA at the moment.

 

[Numsquat]

Kegging a hoppy blonde today (5 gal) and brewing a 10 gal pale ale tomorrow. Switch between a 10gal batch and 5 gal batch every two weeks. Gives me my around 400 gal/years, not counting cider or mead.

 

[grampamark]

Brewing a fizzy Yellow Lager. I've got to get some lagers in the cellar while it's still cold so I’ll have some to drink when the weather gets warm. Drinking a HB Blonde Ale.
