One of the bonuses of being self employed (alright, unemplyed  ::) ) I get to brew on a WEDNESDAY!! I'll also be smoking some salmon. Beautiful fall day.

I'm brewing a FWH Kolsch and a Wezienfest (a cross between a Hefeweizen and an Oktoberfest).

Wish me luck on the FWH Kolsch. I'm using crystal hops. Just trying something different but I may chicken out at the last minute.  :-[

bonjour:
A Starter, a Scottish 60-/ AG, and a Robust Porter partial mash with my future SIL

I should brew something, but need to keg and clean fermenters first.  That in itself is demotivating!! :-\

Bluesman and I are doing a joint BVIP next weekend.  I'm thinking about squeezing in a Centennial IIPA this weekend if time permits.
