I've been a busy brewer in the past few weeks, I tend to brew around 8 batches, one after another to stock up my inventory as it dwindles down, I need to start kegging, I do not enjoy the whole washing and sanitizing bottles thing, partly because I have to wash and sanitize 16 cases!
Any way, I brew a few light APA's for my buddies that cannot handle anything heavier than a blonde ale..he he he, but this is what I have done in the past few weeks, and what is on deck and fermenting:
Cider - this came out amazing! Thank God that I took detailed notes!
Cascade Pale Ale - APA
Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale - A little heavy on the Bourbon, this will need to age a bit more
Irish Imperial Ale - I used a darker roasted rye 500 srm instead of 300 srm, this resulted in a slightly darker beer (obviously) with a hint roasted coffee, and a very small hint of chocolate like sweetness, I find it incredible, again, I'm glad I take detailed notes...LOL!!
Golden Amarillo Ale - APA
Oktoberfest - Still lagering 6 weeks
Centennial IPA Clone- This recipe is a dead on Clone - Currently Fermenting
Hoptimum IPA Clone - Another Dead on clone! If I can find an open LHBS to pick up the hops, I'll brew this either today of tomorrow.
Oktoberfest - As soon as the current batch comes out of the mini fridge, another batch goes in to ferment.
I like to have a decent variety on hand, these brews are a few of my "must have on hand" brews, every time I brew, I'll add a new brew to the inventory and take out one that we might be growing tired of for a while.
