Nice! It's on my to do Brewing list. Never made a Golden Ale but already have a recipe mapped out. May be my next one, though I'm anxious to try aharri's white stout.

You should let us know when you taste it how you like those Brewer's Gold hops. I am curious about that hop, in regards to the flavor and aroma in the finished product.

Mine brew day went well and it smells and tasted good going into the fermenter

 

[brewcat]

Brewed an amber, kicked a Scottish.

I got my Mark II Keg and Carboy Washer up and running, today. It's been through two Better Bottles (one with some caked on crud from an English Mild), one 3 gallon keg, and it's working its way through the next 3 gallon keg.

After that, it'll get a five gallon keg, into which I'll rack cider; then, I'll throw that carboy right onto the cleaner.

 

[505-Brewer]

Kegged 11 gals of barleywine. Have the flu so all i know is that it tasted bitter. Couldn’t do a D test since I cant smell much but it should be all set. Going to leave it with light head pressure and test it when my senses return just to be sure.

Friday, I've been too busy to post.

Brewed a batch of Bitter JO IIPA.
Used my new HopStopper 2.0, worked excellent
Deep cleaned my fermenter while it was sparging.
Cleaned all 3 lines in my keg fridge.
Cleaned and sanitized/purged my 2 empty kegs.

 

[6Tap]

Today I:
Cleaned 6 tap lines

Cleaned my fermentor

Brewed a batch of Blonde Ale.

 

[Emul]

Created a .5 gallon yeast starter of WLP007 for my 90 Minute IPA clone.

 

[aharri1]

added the cacao nibs about 5 days ago in secondary to my white Stout and just added some coffee beans last night. Took a sample and it's tasting awesome. going to rack it to the keg tomorrow night and cold crash for a couple weeks.

Grain mill showed up and I'm excited to put it to good use for my busy brew month. Gonna do two brew days in January, one week apart. Already had the grain milled for the first batch (didn't know I was getting this for my birthday, thanks to my lovely wife). I plan to try it out for the second batch.

First batch is gonna be a NEIPA and I'm using WLP066 London Fog which I'm excited to try. Been using US-05 for a while.

Second batch might be a another stout while the weather here in AZ is still relatively cold (cold ground water good for cooling and no need for fermentation fridge).

I'm harvesting the yeast after each of these batches, which is something I've never done before. I'm using WLP066 for the first batch and was thinking of using WLP004 for the stout. We'll see how things go [emoji3]

 

[aharri1]

Racked white stout into keg from secondary. The coffee and chocolate notes are not too overpowering so I'm happy with the outcome! A solid 7% ABV.

 

[Novacor]

Kegged my IdahoPA, cleaned the gear, and started to plan my next brew. I'm leaning towards a blonde ale with Cashmere hops and Hornindal Kveik.

 

[Brewbuzzard]

Transferred beer to get ready to bottle for the Bluebonnet Brew-off competition and rousted the Velvet Hammer clone.

 

[Andrew Hodgson]

After work I will check on the sach fermentation for my margarita gose, and if she looks like she has died down a bit will pitch lacto and raise the temp a bit, if not will wait until tomorrow.

 

[brewbama]

Racked 5 gal Golden Ale to a keg.

 

[aharri1]

Took a sample of my white stout after cold crashing overnight. The coffee is a little strong, but hopefully that will mellow out! Overall, the taste is really great! this will be my first beer to go in a competition to be judged by BJCP certified judges!
