Oh you're in Fargo?
I was just up there a couple weekends ago hunting.

Stopped in at Kilstone Brewing, they make some pretty good beer.

I will be brewing this weekend, a blond ale mini mash kit assembled by the local brewing supply store.  I have a Two Hearted ale clone bottled, and a Cervesa kit in the fermenter.

I about ran out of homebrew! I have bottles everywhere. I gotta get busy.

First brew day after moving to South Texas. A no-boil no-chill strong sour saison.  Also, this might be my last 5 gallon batch, moving up to a 10gallon system ASAP

Their Polyphonic IPA was pretty good if IPAs are your speed.
I also had a british session ale that they had on tap that was solid as well.

Also, dog friendly

Bottling this Sunday morning. Might brew a replacement grapefruit shandy Monday. ( I bought a kit with a missing ingredient, sent another by Brewer's Best, after a phone call.)

I make cider and have been out of the game for a while. Just like Al Pacino in Godfather 3, “they pull me back in.” I am sitting here right now force carbing a keg of plain Jane apple cider for the ladies at our get together tomorrow night and waiting to put a brisket on the smoker. I have a Zombie Cure clone cyser in primary that I’m going to move and I bought more stuff to make a graff as soon as my primary opens up.

I’m out of kegs!

Not brewing, but related. I put a saison into the fridge to cold crash before bottling, added raspberries to another. Planning 3 recipes and seeing what I need to buy to hopefully brew 3 new batches next week. 2 saisons that will get fruit, and a big high gravity Belgian of some sort. I have a pack of WLP 545 I need to use

Have Two Hearted ale clone in the fermenter at 80 degrees. Will pitch the yeast slurry probably tomorrow.


Oh, I finally got an O.G. 1.07. IF it attenuates to 1.01 like the last two batches it will be 8% ABV.

I think that's become something other than a Kolsch, but it's home brewing and you can do whatever you want.

Yeah , the local store was out of German 2 row so I substituted for Belgian and my boil took more water than I wanted it to so I ended up higher abv. I'm looking at this as if I was a Belgian peasant 250 years ago and couldn't afford imported kolsh so I make a local clone more or less with different ingredients

Bottled the malted oatmeal stout yesterday, and the Scotch ale "90 shilling" today.

Gonna try to brew a Belgian white tomorrow, or maybe the cervesa, depending on outside temp.

Edit:  Yep, have started the Belgian. Mini mash in the kitchen.  Too cold for the garage.

Sucks, don't it?  Another good thing about kits; doable in the kitchen easier than all grain brews.  Wifey does bitch about the smell however.

Edit: She didn't say anything today about the smell.  NOBODY will ever understand woman.  We had our 42nd anniversary the 27th.

Today is one of the few days she has shut up. About anything.

Brewed the BB Mexican Cerveza kit today.  I think next I will do the two hearted ale clone without the dry hop.  I will call it "half hearted ale,"  or "have farted ale."

Next weekend probably.

Brewing something different today. A Pale Lager. Nothing but Golden Promise malt and Hallertau hops.  Wanted to try something other than Pils.

So, a SMaSH lager.  Cool. (Pun not  intended.)  The cascade SMaSH I've brewed a few times has been light and refreshing.
