40 gallons in the chest freezer and another 10 fermenting....well, maybe not where I want to be, but not in crisis mode yet. |

I'm over the hump . . I think. 5 gallons of a Blonde left, 5 of ESB, about 8 of a Dunkel and just racked the 10 gallons of Hefe over on Tuesday. My O’fest ran dry prematurely, but have a porter and stout on deck over the next couple of weeks. Really don’t foresee any crisis while the Dr. ordered consumption sabbatical is in force. 20 days, 11 hours, 59 minutes, 51 seconds |

I just ran out of "regular" homebrew. I still have some barleywine left in my 3 gallon keg, but not alot. I may be moving soon and didn't want to move a bunch of full kegs. I've been stopping by BevMo lately. I haven't been out of homebrew since I started brewing 14 years ago. |

I made the big mistake of doing a couple of lagers in August without a backlog of ales to keep me going. Two of my four taps are dry, with a third down to a glass or so. The only thing that's left is an English mild on the nitro tap. It's good, but I don't want to drink it every day for the next month. I just went to Canals the other day and picked up some Pilsner Urquell. On the bright side, I've got a starter going right now, and tomorrow is brew day. Woohoo! |

Still a case of sweet stout left. An end of season beach party depleted all my other supplies. Brewed a blonde in August and is finally at drinking age so I'll hopefully be able to have her (a bottle, that is) this weekend. Right behind have B52, then Rye PA hopefully ready for consumption on 2 week cycles. Plan to brew a So English Brown in a few weeks, then Scottish 70/-, then Strong Scotch, then ESB maybe in January. Kegging our Club's year-old apple brandy barrel-aged "Original Sin" Belgian Ale in December. I better ask for more kegs for Christmas. |

I am low on kegged beer for the club's campout this weekend. I do have 10 gallons of 50% cane sugar cream ale ready for bottling - maybe I can keg half of that! Last Friday I brewed 62 gallons of APA that is now dry hopping. Dan --This space is STILL being left intentionally blank.-

Chumley - I would like to get info on your co-workers Saurkraut. I tried to make it last year and it is too salty. |

Same here Tim, I'm basically out. I have a bunch of B52 in the fridge, but that's just not for me, doesn't have enough hops. I've been living on Bitter Woman lately... |

Oh - and I am low on homebrew as well. 1/3 keg of cream ale and 5 gallons of ESB that needs to be kegged. No time to brew the next few weeks because wine grapes came in last weekend and this weekend. |

I got down to 4 kegs on tap in Aug. and got worried. I had 10 gal of saison and 10 of a Belgian pale ale in the works though. Plus I just kegged the second 5 gal of CAP. I still like the German lager yeast better than the Bock in that brew. Plus I've brewed 5 gal of B-52 and 10 of a bitter in the last month. Now if I can just find time to brew my Wee Heavy soon. Yeast will be ready this weekend but looks like it will be 3 weeks before I can brew it unless I pull a late nighter on a school night. |

Other than ~ 20 gallons of various barleywines, 4 gallons of RIS, and 8 gallons of Belgian Strong Golden, I'm down to 3 kegs in the serving fridge, all of which are less than half full. I have not brewed for 8 months! However, this will be rectified over the remainder of the year. I'll be firing up the burners the first full weekend of October. I've got ~ 600 pounds of base malt, ~ 100 pounds of specialty grains, 10 pounds of hops, and currently have 15 brewing sessions created in Promash. I only hope my marriage will survive this marathon of brewing that is going to occur. |

Dry here, unfortunately it's still too warm in my place in Phoenix to brew. One more month. |

1 keg of hefeweizen, 2 kegs of APA, 1 keg of bitter, 1 keg of porter, bottling two DIPAs tomorrow (actually I think they are more american-style barleywines than DIPAs...) got a kölsch, an alt and a cider fermenting, and am brewing another hefeweizen and a wit within the next week. Phew!! And I'm throwing a huge party in three weeks! Gonna pack the apartment with as many people as I can leverage in there with a shoehorn So I guess I'll have to do it all over again when the guests have left! Incidentally, if anybody here is in Oslo on the 14th of October, let me know  |

The situation is desperate here. I've got cider, some English pale ale, and odds and ends of batches not good enough to have finished off yet. But I'm fixing it. I made a batch of roggenbier on Friday and that is always ready quick. If I can squeeze in 2 or 3 more brews before Halloween I'll be fine through the holidays. Then it will time to brew madly again, laying in enough stock to coast through next summer's hiatus. "...bits of me are scattered in the trees and in the hedges..." -- Graham Parker

Well, I'm down to about 15 gallons on tap, and I only have 10 gallons in secondary right now that I would like to leave be for another 2 months. Not reaching dangerously levels yet, but I will be brewing a Nut Brown this weekend. I need to brew again next weekend to be back to "safe" levels, but I'm not sure what to make yet. |

I think the invite might have something to do with it. It says that all women have to wear their SEXIEST and HOTTEST dresses. At 120 people, that comes to about 60 females in skimpy clothes! Normally, I don't like to go shopping with my wife, but she took me mini-skirt shopping yesterday. Helping her pick handkerchiefs to wear turned out to be quite fun! I'm bringing my cell phone camera for this party! YOWZA! |

Imagine nothing but sand as far as the eye can see ... blazing sun above...proverbial cow's skull in foreground... A prostrate HB'er feebly crawling forward, shaky hand uplifted, ... wrinkled red skin, tatters left of clothes... Barely audible plea.... "beer..." Damn I'm suffering from a turrible dry. Worst ever since I started brewing. Moved in April. Nothing in fermentor or kegs but a TSP solution. Just got a measly 5 gallon carboy of blond ale ready to keg. Accepting charitable shipments from fellow homebrewer's at this time... wait... a contest...! send your entries c/o TimWi Classic Open, 6 required for entry in the first round... P.O. box... T |

Nothing? That is bad. By being low, I guess I really am not THAT low...I have about 20 gallons of mead sitting around (4 flavors)....5 gallons of a 1.112 wee heavy aging....same for a 1.085 Baltic Porter that is lagering in a mine adit at 8000 feet above mean sea level....1.070 dubbel in a primary...1.058 APA in a primary....on tap: a Glacier hop APA...a sour Denny RyePA (its actually starting to taste okay)...2.5 gallons of cream age cold condtioning....about 5 cases of miscellaneous bottles (mostly lambics, though). I believe this weekend I will brew a CAP with the WY2308 Munich Lager yeast. On deck: Pliney the Elder clone, porter, tripel, quadrupel, more APA, more IPA, more bitters. |

Chumley, what's with the sour Rye IPA? Did you intend to sour it, or did it just turn out that way? I'm thinking of trying a batch. |

So THAT's where the hunting thread on World Expressions came from... Sounds like moose marinade would be perfect for it - and tasty. I had a moose stick her head in my tent once in Baxter State Park, Maine. It was about two a.m. and I was sound asleep. I opened my eyes and her snout was right over my head. Scared the crap out of me. |

This thread reminds me of a medical procedure performed on a lesbian woman. She was constantly leaving her female companion feeling less than fulfilled. The name of the procedure was an addadictome. |
