I'm not sure.  I'm desperately trying to find someone to go up to Bellingham and proctor a BJCP exam so I can stay home and brew.  If I can find a volunteer I'll do 2 or 3 batches, since it's a stag weekend.  I've got my fingers crossed, if it works out I'll let you know - the homebrew shop is a 20 minute drive, I'll brew whatever I feel like making that I can get ingredients for that will all like the same fermentation temp.

I might brew Friday night in any event, that BDS that I didn't get to last weekend.

Belgian Pale.  Smoked Dunkelweizen should be finished fermenting.

Tomorrow night I'll be kegging a barleywine that I brewed over the xmas break and an Irish Red Ale brewed a couple weeks ago. I also need to rack a batch of orange blossom mead onto five pounds of peaches. Saturday AM I will be brewing my Simcoe IPA and using the Wyeast 1469 slurry from the IRA to ferment it. Sunday I'll be dry hopping a batch of Steam beer and a SNPA clone while drinking a delicious Summit Winter Ale clone. Life is good!

Setting up this afternoon to brew an APA tomorrow.  Need to make something quick, easy, and simple and quick after the 4 lagers in a row.  Just a simple mash and short boil.

Bottled up a split batch of CAP over the last two nights.  One fermented with 2035 and one with 2124.  I'll be interested to see which one I prefer in side by side tasting.  I bottled each three gallon batch on two different nights so I didn't taste the flat samples together but I think I'm leaning towards the 2124.

India Dark Ale for me, with a new malt I've never tried called Blackprinz.  Using a blend of Simcoe, Cascade, and Chinook for the hops.  2 ounces of each, split into 6 portions to go in throughout the boil.  Should be tasty.

Being that I'm going camping this weekend, I've decided to "brew" tonight under the full moon.  Quite appropriate!  Should be finished around sunrise.

It's good to be the boss.  (Please don't tell SWMBO I said that).  I asked myself for Friday off - and I said OK.  

A 4-day weekend... yeah baby!

<update>

02:20 local time
Session is about half way there.  It is a gorgeous night out on the carport!  64 F - clear sky - beautiful full moon - very quiet...
I'm thinking I may have overnight sessions like this more often.   Looks like sunrise will be pau hana.

I asked myself for Friday off and I said, "I can't afford it" so here I am at work.
'Judging homebrew tomorrow for Best Florida Beer Championships, no brewing this weekend.  By the time I get to brew again I will have forgotten how.

IF my shipment from Brouwland comes in I'll be doing a double batch of CAP and Spitfire clone. If it doesn't come in, I'm gardening, working on guardrails for my deck, and generally not thinking in any way at all about work.
