As my altbier and mead are almost finishing their fermentations I added a 2.5 gallon batch of Munich Dunkel and a 1 gallon batch of apple cider to the fermentation closet. Had to have the blow off tube hooked up to the cider it started very vigorous. It is also my first ferment to give that lovely fart smell I have been warned about :p

You had me at Altbier, but you hooked me at dunkel. I'll even bring my own mug! :cask:

Two hearted clone that is going to be kegged in 48 hours (This is my staple IPA...non NEIPA anyways)

Black Butte Porter clone....this will be kegged next weekend.
 
5 gallons of NEIPA, first round of dry hops added today (2oz mosiac and 1oz citra). The last dry hop addition will be added 2-3 days before I keg it.
 
A Belgian wit, and damn has brewing with Wyeast 3944 sucked this time. Insane blowoff for 7 days and along with the great bready smell in my basement is insane sulfur. I’ve not had that issue with this yeast before but a google search says its common and I need to let it ride in the primary till it’s gone in 3-4 weeks. Yeesh!

Just changed the blowoff bucket water out for the 3rd time and if it didn’t have Starsan in it, it looks and smells like a nice low ABV wit itself! Carboy has about 1+ gal of headspace.
 
Best bitter... 92% Golden Promise and 8% Crystal 40. Fuggle, EKG, and Styrian Goldings. Open fermenting with Wyeast 1469. Pitched yesterday and already taking off. It should be ready for cask conditioning in about a week.

Split batch adding wild cherry bark, lemongrass, peppermint, hibiscus, orange peel, rosehips and lemon verbena.
 
My first ever mead. 3 gallons. Should clock in around 14% ABV.

I'll separate each gallon out for a secondary with three different fruit versions. Crossing my fingers!
