I'm brewing a Hex nut Brown ale extract from Midwest. I wanted to get a pic. at the peak of the hot break and I cut it close.

I put the camera down and pulled it without a boil over but it was close.

Gonna keg the Amber's Amber Lager tomorrow, and then on Sunday I'm brewing a fiver of FedoraDave's American Ale.

And I'm impatiently waiting for the Trilby Brown Ale to condition.

Just kegged a batch of Smooth Rye'd IPA. It spent the last 5 days with a dry hop of my favorite hop combo of Amarillo & Simcoe.

I brewed a session IPA like thing I called "Das Cascadian" since it's all Belgian/German malts, and all Cascade hops.

Brewed the Mr B Astro Nut Brown ale this afternoon. This is the first Mr B recipe from them that involves steeping grains and a hop boil. Was still very quick and easy; done in less than an hour. The wort tasted good. Will see how it turns out.

I brewed a Bengal in the Rye this afternoon
"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain
-- Quaintest thoughts -- Queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."

Finally brewing the (supposed to be ready for the February meet-up, but am brewing way too late for that) Nashville Pre-Prohibition Amber Ale today. Almost done with the boil. Good to be brewing again...
