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:
