Getting low on hoppy beers, so... Amarillo/Simcoe APA tomorrow and a Two Hearted clone Sunday or Monday.

I'm brewing a saison on Sunday, and I've got an IPA to keg as well.  Fortunately, I have a nice oatmeal stout on tap...

The weather is cool. I might do an ordinary bitter at the request of my loving wife. A Saison will follow.
I decided to do this one low tech, easy peasy. It was kind of fun to do a batch that way. I did check the mash and kettle pH, though.

I just mashed in on a bitter that's using Wyeast 1968, in honor of me being on the Fullers brewery tour in 13 days. I am stoked!

Getting ready to rack off the 4lbs of raspberries that this porter has been working on for 10 days.  Then a couple of weeks to clear nicely and bottle it up.  Tastes great now and I can't wait to get it bottled and matured.  Since the wife has a cold, I might have to get ingredients for a brown ale that is getting hopped with wild hops from near the Air Force Academy.  This will be a true experiment as I have never used them but other homebrewers and micros have in various styles.  No idea on the actual variety but they smelled good!

Double batching it today.  SS Minnow Mild clone and Ken Lenard's Memory Lapse (tweaked ever so slightly).  Expecting great things

My bitter went smoothly, so I'm brewing my tweaked Ranger IPA clonish recipe this morning. I can't quite get the hop profile.

Today's schedule
Simcoe FWH
Chinook @ 60
Simcoe @20
Cascade @ 5
I'll dry hop with a load of Cascade

My previous attempts have been tasty, but Ranger is one of my wife's favorites so I'd like to be able to get close to it.

I just finished my first no-sparge, no-chill double batch of "Thomas Jefferson" Ale (Mosher) and "Ben Franklin's Poor Richard's" Ale for a friend who's into the founding fathers. Suffice to say he did NOT want to brew the Obama beers  ;D

I need something quick. I'm winging an English pale with Tettnanger hops.

Took me a moment to realize that was a single letter transition from a b to the v. Otherwise I was sitting here thinking two things:

Damn that's a thick beer
Carve? As in a tap handle or is this some old technique I've never heard of?

20gal of Mako IPA (5 for me, 5 for a friend who is brewing with me, and 10 for a late oktoberfest party).

actually changed up and did 10gal of Mako for the party and 10gal of imperial red - one of the most 'red' red beers I've ever made - it was pretty cool;

12gal recipe
14lbs MO
14lbs 2-row
6lbs Weyermann Munich II
1.25 lbs C- 120
1.75 lbs English med Crystal
Chico Yeast

I'll have to look back at the hop schedule if anyone is interested, but a lot of Chinook, Cascade and Simcoe - thinking of dryhopping with either Cascade, Columbus or Amarillo - undecided at this point.
