Super Bowl (Brew) Day... whatcha brewing?

[ChefMichael01]

Need another 20ish bottles to be able to bottle my Apfelwein and have a carboy available. Therefore, I'll be taking down a couple of cases of beers this weekend, already told the GF this would be a "staying in weekend."

After that, brewing a dry stout on Sunday.

I'll be doing my first AG. Blood Orange Hefeweizen. I converted the recipe from "Extreme Brewing" with a few modifications.

On Sunday, I'm brewing an IPA. Then playing hockey at 2:30, then watching the Superbowl. I've already made the pickled eggs and we're having venison summer sausage and beer. Should be a great day!

 

[steelerguy]

Did my brewing last weekend, heading to AZ tomorrow to visit family and start rubbing it in early. Grew up in AZ and no one liked the Cards there till this year...all aboard the bandwagon!!! Choo choo!!!

 

[frolickingmonkey]

I'm brewing an Irish stout instead of watching the game... When the Stanley Cup Finals come 'round, THEN I'll pick sports over brewing!

 

[Coastarine]

No way would I miss the game (go Steelers) but on Saturday I'm brewing ed's Oktoberfest Ale with a little extra kick to it because I already mixed the grain, but my efficiency went up because I got a crusher. Should come in at about 7.2%:cross:

 

[impatient]

I don't know what you would call it.

10lbs Munich Briess
3lbs Wheat Malt
3oz Cascade(8.7%) - 60 minutes

Maybe an IPA?

 

[newbeerpig]

I brewed last weekend so super-bowl sunday will be wide open for commercial watching with a tasty home-brew in hand although I have been considering starting a mead so you never know especially since my secondaries are wide open and ready for something...

 

[Got Trub?]

Brewing a Porter tomorrow. Will be drinking on SB sunday. I never drink and brew, I screw things up enough without alcohol on board :cross:

[beerthirty]

I'm brewing a New England clam boil. Gotta have some good eats to go with watching the Cards kick some A$$!

 

[Eves]

I'll be brewing up an AHS Belgian White in the morning. I might whip up a batch of apfelwein too. And then if things aren't going well for the Cards I might start up a batch of AHS Oatmeal Stout Ale to get my mind off the game.

 

[TimSTi]

Ill be building my MLT and then brewing my first AG. Can't wait. Brewing the cream of 3 crops ale for a family ski trip with a bunch of BMCers.

 

[beersydoesit]

Oktoberfest on Sat. and Alt on Sun. Can't have empty equipment can we?
The game doesn't start 'til 6 or so.
Plenty of time.

 

[Rubberband]

Newbie checking in with an AHS Red Ale classic kit and EdWort's Apfelwein. A busy weekend for me, will be the third brewday for all time.:rockin:

I don't have much to drink as the first batch was so good it is gone and the second batch is bottle conditioning. Luckily, I have 12 Bells Two Heart Ales to drink and root for the Cards (not to hard though, my heart still belongs to the Cowboys)

 

[IowaHarry]

I will be brewing a belgian wit kit from Midwest on sunday.

What's this about a game? What game? Can I play?

(The last SB I watched had the vikings playing the chiefs, name that one sports fans)

 

[impatient]

I am brewing right now. This way I can sit on my ass tomorrow.

Here it is. I just made it up. It matches an IPA style.

10lbs Munich Briess Malt
3lbs Wheat Malt
3oz Cascade(8.7%) 60 minutes

I mashed in at 152 for an hour then fly sparged at 170 at a rate of 2 quarts a minute (I couldn't get it to stay running any slower than that).

It is still boiling at the moment, so, I don't know my OG. Should be around 1.070.

This is somewhat of a big beer to help balance out the hoppiness. It will still register in extremely hoppy which is what I am looking for.

Iowa
I don't know what year, but if the Vikings played I know who won!

 

[ArcaneXor]

Unfortunately nothing, because my order is stuck in a UPS warehouse for the weekend. I had hoped to brew a nice Witbier with chamomile and juniper berries, but I'll have to postpone that until next week (probably Wednesday).

 

[Coastarine]

What a day for brewing! 63 and sunny! I'm just rockin out to 311 and surfin HBT for the first half (45min) of the boil. No hops till then.

That seems to be their MO. Drive right up to the line, then choke.

Doing a double crush on the grain for that Wit, trying to increase my efficiency.

 

[CGengo]

Just finished a mini-mash oatmeal stout a couple hours ago - couldn't have asked for nicer day to do it. If tomorrow's weather is as nice as today's then it'll be a great day for football.

 

[dontman]

I brewed up a batch of Belgian Pale today. The occasion is not the Superbowl though. I am brewing to fill the 6 new kegs that I have coming my way.

 

[Bravo11]

Yellow Dog Pale Ale from The Home Brewery. I've heard good reviews and thought I'd give it a try. Trying to reduce my total cycle time for an extract brew session.

 

[BlackDogBrewing]

I'm doing a spiced winter ale/Scottish ale from Northern. I like brewing when there's snow on the ground, i bring buckets of snow in to cool the wort quickly in the kitchen sink.

 

[Hegh]

I did brew the Cumbrian Double Brown Ale like I said I would. Went very smoothly, too, except that my experiment at aeration didn't work as well as I'd hoped. No harm, though, and I know I aerated well, so no worries.

 

[gmds123]

Did my first pm yesterday! Did the midwest cal. steam. It's happily bubbling away right now.

I live and work a couple miles from where the Cards play.......... had to do it yesterday. Couldn't miss that game! They fell a bit short but what a game! The Cards rocked us this year....... great season!

:rockin:

 

[SuDZ27]

I gave my first time brewing a shot Saturday. I hope everything came out fine. I have it in the primary now and the airlock is bubbling away now. I will let it sit for a while and see what happens. It was a Red Ale from Brewers Best.

That was my first ever too! I loved that one. I still brew variations on that recipe and it is the only recipe I have ever repeated.
