Oatmeal stout? That's a favorite early winter style for me.

Stout or a Porter? I made a Baltic Porter a month or so ago to lager until fall.

What do you like drinking in the winter? You have time to brew nearly anything and have it ready for consumption. Even a big beer could be ready, especially if you have a healthy fermentation.

Some breweries have a calendar of what they're brewing or planning to brew and that might also give you an idea.  Check out New Glarus Brewing in Wisconsin.
It's easier to read brewing books and get information from the forum than to sacrifice virgins to appease the brewing gods when bad beer happens!

Good point.

Northern Brewer has one that may be a bit arbitrary, but if you want an actual calendar, take a look:

I found a pretty cool one from homebrewing.com. I don't follow it ver batum but  it gets me in the ballpark and thinking ahead.

Well I know Im gonna be brewing a stout of some sort for winter but I was thinking about something to bridge the gap and I have settled on a balanced  copper colored ale copper of some sort. Better make up my mind before brew day…

Altbier is a good choice for that

Yeah an Altbier would be good but I want something ready quick. Leaning towards an amber, but still undecided.
