What are yall doing for Fall brews? I'm thinking of doing a rye saison and putting pumpkin and brett in half. Not a huge pumpkin fan, esp pumpkin pie like brews. I'll probably aim for something more subtle.

Both of my last two beers won't be ready until well in to the fall, maybe later. I need to get on something for fall, but it's so hard to think of fall when it's hot as hell out. At the same time I need to get my wild ale going. The starter has been sitting around for a little while now and is looking nice and healthy.

Yeah, I could easily let my sour sit for a few more months.

What did you use to build your starter?

That is what I'm saving mine for.
I just peaked in on my sour wort saison and the brett has really kicked it up and there is some nice pellicle. I guess that means that I will be letting it sit for a good bit more.

when you come down this way for your race, let's trade some homebrews. I might even have my first batch of all-grain ready to drink by then.

Oatmeal Stout. Brewing that one in about 2 weeks.
After that I'm thinking:
Black IPA
Rye IPA
Biere de Garde

Oh, i also contacted Jester King and they gave me the recipe for Black Metal.

My next 2 brews will be a vanilla and espresso imperial stout and then a brown ale.

I want to make one of these one day. It just seems kind of boring.

So are you not going to share with the group?

I will email it to anyone who wants it. I don't know if i'd feel right about posting it on an open forum.

Strange thing is, my original grain recipe wasn't too far off. Granted they don't have oats, and have about 3 more grains.
And i used the same hops, based on their website suggestions. But the % of bittering i was using is also really close to their actual %'s.
quote:
78% British Pale Malt
6% Roasted Barley
2% De-bittered Black Carafa III
2% Crystal 75
2% Chocolate Malt
3% Coffee Malt
7% Roasted Oats
