Who is Brewing this 4th of July....or at least the weekend?

[Sammy86]

Since the 4th is my birthday I will be brewing tomorrow...my sister and brother in law are coming over with my niece for her and daddy's first brew day! Needless to say I'm very excited!

 

[myerstyson]

Brewing my Kotbusser this weekend.

 

[JonM]

Oh AND my little nieces love it when I make root beer. (Quote - "Uncle Jon makes the BEST root beer!") This year I asked if they want to come over and help me make the root beer and they are really excited for that.

Brewing a tangerine wheat on Thursday. Will be my first attempt at a 10 gallon batch.

Good luck on the 10 gallon batch! My boil kettle is only 10.5 so I usually do around 7-8 gallons, or just enough to top off the corny keg after losses if I'm not bottling. I will be doing a orange honey wheat soon as well. The recipe on HBT here but I think I'll add the late citruisy hops just because I've got them.

 

[Bearsmith]

Brewing 50 gallons of RIS with 2 other buddies on Friday that is going into a Bourbon barrel.

 

[jaydlaw]

I'm brewing either on the 2nd or 3rd.

 

[EtchyLives]

I'll be brewing the 2nd or 3rd and doing up the Bit R Done. I'll be using my new grain mill and fermenting chamber I built, both for the first time. Should be a good time as I am introducing my Brother-in-Law to the happiness that brewing can bring.

 

[BrooklynTom]

Tomorrow, if all goes well. I am going to do a 5gal clone of Jonas Bronck's " chocolate egg cream stout "
and if time is on my side, 5gals of a Belgium doubbel with a blood orange tincture.
Good Luck to all the brewers, and Happy July 4th.

Brewing 2 batches this weekend to get ready for a mid August bbq at our new house.

The famous Centennial Blonde recipe and a Orange Witbeer.

I have a Saison ready in bottles and a DIPA that's cold crashing now, should be a nice variety at the party

 

[razyrsharpe]

i will brew on Thursday, 7/2. Gonna remake my SMaSH with Munich that i just found to be infected, darn it. Munich Light + Glacier hops + Nottingham yeast.

 

[yukonhijack]

I have a Dogfish 60 in the keg, a Stone Ruination IPA getting into another keg on Friday, and a Cascade IPA going into the secondary on Saturday. Looks like I need another IPA to brew on Sunday

I'll try to brew tomorrow, July 3. I have a blonde/pale ale in mind - 1.049, 4 oz of a Summer/Rakau split, with Notty (first time using it).

This'll be my last summer beer before I get into fall mode with a Maris Otter pumpkin ale and a hopped-up brown ale.

 

[schematix]

July 3. Making a 10g batch of a 1064 APA with lager yeast. Hoping 12oz of hops is enough!

 

[MagicRat]

On staycation all next week. Brewing an ESB, probably on Tuesday.

 

[wobdee]

Brewing a Czech Amber Lager on the 5th.

 

[Komodo]

I'll be brewing a saison over the weekend but a couple years back I brewed a special 4th of July beer with Victory malt and Liberty hops.

Love it. I'm brewing a 14g batch of a simple pale on the 4th. At the suggestion of a friend, I'm gonna call it EagleFire IV.

 

[user 62649]

I'm hoping to be making my Sweet Bourbon Barrel Stout this weekend. Also I'm going to be smoking some shrimp stuffed jalapeno peppers and a Boston butt. I'm also going to smoke about 1-2# 2-Row for my rousch beer next on the docket.

 

[mgortel]

Well I started this post....and planned on a Dusseldorf Alt today...but that went by the wayside when my WLP036 ended up being dead dead dead.....luckily I have Chocolate Milk Stout recipe on hand....brewing that....give me plenty of time for it to age properly for the fall or winter

 

[wardens355]

Pilsener and Dunkel, as long as the weather permits on Friday or Saturday.

Good weather in the forecast now, so now also a Citra Pale Ale, and Super Pine IPA (Simcoe, Chinook). Weeeee!

 

[ChelisHubby]

Brewing a session blonde!

 

[jwalkermed]

Brewing a heady topper clone tomorrow

 

[oujens]

Just got done brewing my first lager, an Oktoberfest. Fixed a leaky mash tun and hit my numbers. Chilling tonight and will pitch the starter in the morning. What a way to start the weekend!

 

[JonM]

I'm off today but my darling bride is working. So instead of my usual up before dawn brewday, I'm sleeping in, leisurely enjoying coffee and soon I'll go to the local diner for eggs and bacon and buttery toast. After brewday, the grill is getting fired up for brats and kielbasa.

I suppose I should mow the lawn so it looks like I did something productive today.

EDIT: I'm at the diner. Twenty-something guy, obviously hungover as s#*t, in his pajamas, sitting a few stools down. Heh.

 

[Daynada]

My weekend started on Wednesday; don't have to be to work again until next Wednesday. Yesterday the daughter and I brewed a scotch ale. This is the first brewing without "following" someone else's recipe. Although I've never been able to follow a recipe 100% whether it's beer or not.

 

[brick]

Headed to my LHBS shortly for supplies.

 

[Brettomomyces]

I will be brewing my first ever clone batch of Pliny the Elder...got lots of hopshot ready to go and a crapton of simcoe in my freezer

 

[RocketBrewer]

I'm preparing for a red on Sunday and a Kolsh on Monday!

 

[slym2none]

I brewed my Oktoberbeast Ale last night... looks like I will be working all weekend, so I had to use my day off to get it done.

 

[atoughram]

Just killed my last keg of Hefe.....

300 pounds of two row and a new 55 pound bag of wheat in stock... Lot's of Hallertauer's and yeast too...

Guess what I'm making tomorrow?

 

[TallDan]

In the middle of the mash on a Flanders Red right now.
