As usual, I try to take advantage of the weekends when
my older girls are at their mom's to get all of my beer
tasks done. 2 weeks ago it was the monster 4 brew
weekend, this weekend it's only going to be 2 brews and
lot of moving beer around.
I never thought that I would say this, but I actually
have too much beer right now. It will be months before
I get to drink some of it unless I *gulp* bottle! So
that's what I'm doing tomorrow night - I'm bottling the
EF, Belgian Pale Ale and the Southern English Brown
Ale.
The Old Ale gets racked to a keg for long term storage
(I need the 5g carboy that it's in) and the Belgian
Dark Strong, Roggenbier, Blonde and Biere de Garde get
racked to secondary.
I had planned on doing all of that tomorrow night
(assuming that my order with dextrose comes in by
tomorrow), but when I type it all out it sure seems
like a hell of a lot of work!
Then Saturday afternoon I'm going to brew up a
Weizenbock and possibly a Belgian Golden Strong
(depends if my order comes in) or maybe something a bit
more tame for what I'm calling Beerfest '08. It's
basically just a bunch of my buddies coming over to the
house to drink all my beer, brew beer, watch stupid
movies and make fun of each other - after we get done
playing golf in the morning, of course.
Here's the Weizenbock recipe that I'll be using:
