What are you brewing 2015?

[Blind Dog]

Final brew of 2014 overan so it's sitting as an overnight to late morning (if the rugrat obliges) mashout. Not sure if that qualifies as my 1st brew of 2015...

Title of the thread is what are you brewing so what are you brewing?

 

[Mr. No-Tip]

If all goes to plan, I'll have my 2015 RIS and EBW down by mid January, but I did blow a bunch of kegs tonight...

 

[mje1980]

Many more batches of cherry berlinner.

 

[skb]

My first sour and my first saison ... And then a bunch of quaffing Pale ales

 

[Red Baron]

Starting the year with a summer lager, then going to use the yeast cake for a pilsner.

Cheers,
RB.

My first up brew when I get home and get my gear sorted will be another Dark English Mild to make a nice easy keg fill.

OG: 1.040 IBU: 18.5
FG: 1.013. EBC: 24.5
ABV: 3.4% Size: 25L

3.5kg Maris Otter
300g Biscuit
250g Pale Crystal
100g Dark Crystal
100g Pale Choc Malt
40g Fuggle at 60min
MJ Dark Ale Yeast - M03

Last time I used London Ale III yeast and a bit black malt so it will be nice to see the difference.

Then after that will be my 25th brew so might try a double IPA or a black IPA for something different.

Brewing a brown porter today and this year a bunch of various Saison's, Belgian Abbey ales, English Bitters/Brown Ales and some hop bomb IPA's and Pales, might even try a couple of lagers if I get a lagering fridge.

 

[Topher]

Rye pale ale, then a big batch of hefe. Then maybe another batch of hefe. After that I want to try an esb. Might even do the pale today.

Stocks are critical after thirsty Xmas visitors. Have to rig up a system where the fridge only dispenses beer with a gold coin donation.

Planned a pils with 4kg wey pils, 1 kg vienna and a whole lot of saaz to 40 ibu for today. Decoctions and steps a-plenty, two packs wy czech pils in a big starter, fermented at 7 degrees. Will now have to wait till one of my other beers is kegged as I have nowhere to put the wort currently.
Looks like a job for saturday or sunday.

I think it's kegbot that you can use to issue "credits" attached to RFID tags that control access to kegs my bar some people throw in, others don't. I'm not too worried about it anymore, just happy to have people drinking (what i think is) decent beer.

My next brew is a porter but I'm considering doing an esb instead. Not quite porter weather yet

Edit: typo

2015 has started with a bang. Well almost. Had my first ever infection. The cube of a rye pale ale swelled up to about twice it's size. The other half of the batch seems fine so likely the cube had some wild yeast or other nasties in it... Not a great start but it can only get better. Dissapointing as I'd used my supply of ahtanum hops on the infected batch to try them out.. oh well, live and learn.
