So what's the story morning glories?

I'm think RIS this weekend to have something big, rich and chewy for the summer! :)

Continuing the Bye Bye Birdie analogy, what's the word, hummingbird?

Ya know, you're about the only person I know who would think of RIS as a summer beer!  I hope to do the Rye IPA that I couldn't get to last weekend.

That must be because I stole your mojo.  I brewed the Rye IPA last weekend.

Not to worry, by the time it's fermented, conditioned, aged, and ready to drink, it won't be summer any longer :)

After reading "Brewing with Wheat", I'd like to try my hand at a hefeweizen using a decoction (or three)...

Actually, just because I'm a twisted person, I'm pushing for it to ready to drink by the second week of July. Oh yeah. :)

And Denny, you know I couldn't ever do anything by the "rules"

I bottled my Black Forest Stout (JZ recipe sans cherry puree and sub'd Just Black Cherry juice) a few weeks ago and promised y'all an update:

I sampled it the other day.  The cocoa is there (not huge with either flavor or aroma), and the cherry--just barely.  If it is served too cold--it just tastes like a cold stout.  It must warm up considerably to even get a hint of the cocoa or black cherry.

I wish there was some way to doctor the beer and put more cherry flavor in it (but I've already bottled 5 gallons of it and kegged the other 5 gallons).  I'm open to ideas from anyone.  Shall I do the "Mit Schuss" Berliner Weisse thing with my stout and put some marischino cherry syrup in the glass first?  it's supposed to be a "chick" beer for my wife and all her chocaholic girlfriends.

no brewing plans, just bottling an irish red and an oktoberfest that's been lagering for about 8 weeks.  I think I might add the cherries to my lambic as well to officially turn it into a kriek

Not sure what I'm making, but I am brewing on Friday.  I have lots of Munich and Pale Ale malt on hand.  Maybe a pound or two of pilsner.  Any ideas?

Bummer... I've got 2 13 year cats and an 11 year old dog that I'm starting to worry about and then I've got a 5 year old dog with a propensity to eat everything, so...
