Spring is here

Nice clear weather and cool nights = a bucket of wort left to its own devices on the back porch Saturday night then into a carboy to see what the Beer Gods hath wrought upon me
Maybe it turns out to be a Lambic
Maybe it turns out to be snail food

That and possibly another Pils, my wife is crushing the one on draught lately............ ;D
Jeff

On draught:
IIPA, Stout, Hefeweizen, Hallertau Pale Ale, Bitter

Primary:
Hefeweizen,Berliner Weisse, Mead

Well it's definitely spring here.

It's suppose to be in the low 70's this weekend and a great weekend to brew...not that any time is a bad time to brew.

But I am certainly looking forward to brewing a RIS on Sunday.

I'm thinking of doing something extract- maybe a quick Amber with Magnum @ 45 and 30 IBU. A couple hours and its done.

big brew day at my house:

I'm brewing 12g of Citra-Simcoe Pale and my buddy's brewing 12g of Oatmeal Stout, which we'll swap a keg each of, then after my pale is in the fermentor, 12g of house IPA for the festivities portion of my club's competition.

very excited - lots of beer will be flowing once we get to the end of the IPA as well.

Blatz, I'm jealous!  I'm not brewing this weekend. Just packaging a few up for the NHC.
If Homebrew & BBQ aren't the answer, then you're askin' the wrong questions... Cheers!!!

nice - I need to try my hand at the NHC one of these days - do you have to prequalify at another event like MCAB or is it open to any and all?  Good luck!

I've got a few days off next week. I'm brewing a wit and something hoppy with 1272 -- made my starters tonight, so I've got time to figure it out. I love having ingredients in bulk 8)
It's such a fine line between stupid and clever.

The hefeweizen is fermenting away great.  Nice, subdued banana aroma, should be drinking it in a couple of weeks.  Thinking about sending a bottle Denny's way. ;)
