Why is my to brew list growing at twice the speed of the actual brewing?

Mine's going the same way :) - Putting down a WIT tomorrow morning & an Alt won't be far behind.

cheers Ross
 
All these altbiers reminds me i need to brew another soon. :chug:

Love a good malty beer!

Why is my to brew list growing at twice the speed of the actual brewing?

Only twice?
My brewsmith list of recipes I'm playing with stands at around 30...
I keep seeing ideas here and other places and up it goes...
I probably should stop opening it during work hours all the time though :)
 
Was trawling AHB whilst putting down another Witbier & saw that it's "Alt Day" today :) so here are two pics of my latest using Spalter & 1007 to be consumed at Redcliffe in a weeks time. :party:
One pic was taken outside in the sun so as to compare the difference in perceived clarity.

Thanks Rook. :icon_cheers:
Actually it was 3 glasses as I was unsure if the carbonation was the same after 5 minutes in the sun. ;)

Does the timer mean it took you 8 minutes and 11 seconds to drink one? :p

Look forward to a few at Redcliffe, I should have some ESB and Saison samples to kick in as well, should be a good day :icon_drunk: .

Sorry to mention Hosegate.but............no never mind :lol: But I am interested in the attenuation/Fg/ and yeast used.

Cheers,

Screwy

OG: 1050
FG: 1012ish.
yeast: US-05, but will be using a proper alt yeast next time. But the good attenuation of US05 together with the malty grain bill combines well. Late hopped this one to compensate for the no-chill. Not a lot of hop character though (it is young).

Lovely glass - I'm going to Dusseldorf in December (one of many beer destinations), so will picking up some merchendise!
Interesting to see the award winning Alt recipe in the aussie issue of BYO used pacific hallertauer for bittering. I picked up a kilo of it for $32, so will be trying something similar.
 
Unfortunately i can't stick with the Alt theme, but have a Helles and and Oktoberfest on tap at the moment.

D Saaz Cap with 20% Rice - just kegged - had to sneak a quick glass before it does its cc for a few months.

First impressions of the new D saaz flowers is that they show far more grapefruit than the last lot of pellets I had - which gave subdued citrus with strong peaches/nectarines. Still a fantastic hop this - :wub: :wub:

Brown town brown ( ie Tasty's American Brown or Janets brown ale )

Man this is a tasty brew, Even though i no chill this beer has elevated levels of awesomeness followed by some lingering resiny awesomeness and a bitterness that is well, awesome. Resiny bitter and chewy as f..k. This is my best, clearest and hoppyest beer to date, and to Tasty McDole i salute you. Centennial is my new fav hop ( DID I MENTION THIS BEER IS AWESOME)

Bad mobile phone pic of my Hazelnut Brown.
Nice nutty aroma with a decent malt flavour underneath.

So how does it taste???
 
Kind of :icon_offtopic: , but by the same token it is kind of on topic.

My brother in law (in the UK) just sent the following pic of a present that he got for me. The timing is rather uncanny as I am currently building up a Wy1469 starter for my Dr Smurto TTLL clone.
