What's Brewing In March?

Yeah baby it's March an it's sugar in time,soooooooo, tommorrow I'll be making a maple IPA using maple sap.

 

Just finished brewing 10 gallons of experimental kettle sours. 10 min boils for each. 5 gallons is a brett/sage Berliner that will get some pineapple in secondary. The other 5 gal is a key lime gose with us-05. 1 oz cascade for each batch. Grain bill was 50/50 Pils/white wheat for both and they ended up at 1.044. We'll see where they finish!

 

I'm in the process of closing on my first home! I haven't brewed in a month, so I'm looking forward to moving next week and brewing a Barleywine, Wee Heavy and a saison.

 

After a month of no brewing it is time to get to work. Doing a one gallon all Brett blonde, adding WLP 650 to a saison, and plan on brewing a citra/equinox APA.

 

Version 2.0 on a NE style IPA. Just need a few tweaks and I got it.

 

I'm looking to get an Altbier going for spring/summer consumption. Also in the works are a crisp Kolsch and a 'Grand Cru' Witbier with 3463 for the same purpose, haven't decided whether or not to do both? I also got a Belgian Golden going for mid to late fall that is smelling delicious!

 

Picking up ingredients tomorrow. Going to try @Soneast 's Kolsch recipe.

 

As we speak, a NEIPA using LIII instead of Giga (and 3 lb of Red X with Mosaic/Citra/Galaxy 2:1:1)

 

My LHBS has Red X for pretty cheap. Have you used it before? I'm tempted to grab some for a hoppy Amber

 

Just got the brewery going again in the new house. IPA and stout kegged, 40 liters of helles lagering away and a hefeweizen open fermenting. Coming up is a belgian dubbel on tart cherries, traditional bock and a mosaic hoppy red.

 

Hitting off the early spring with a hoppy brown ale and kettle soured pineapple session IPA.

 

Check out Stone's Pataskala amber IPA. Showcases red x quite nicely

 

Yes, usually @ 80-90% of the maltbill, but this time only 24% as I used 12% oatmeal and the Red X due to low d-power will only convert itself.

 

Haven't brewed yet this year, gonna brew a juicy bits clone and a simple pils at the same time.

 

Just picked up ingredients and got a starter going for a lower gravity KBS type brew. I'm calling it KBS Lite. Basically a stout with oats, chocolate, and coffee aged in a bourbon barrel. Looking for something around 7.5 %abv. Going to keg and Let it sit all summer, should be good to go in the fall.

 

Would love to see a pic of this to see how red it looks with the 1318 cloudiness!

 

I don't do pixs for the internet (for religious reasons : )) , but I can tell you it was an iridescent orange/red going into the fermenter.

 

Brewed up two more 5 gal batches of single-hopped NEIPAs on Wednesday. Mosaic & Belma. Love Mosaic so I'm really antsy for these to finish fermenting!

Brew buddy coming over tomorrow; going to brew another NEIPA and also a Stout. Going to brew 5gal of that and maybe try doing a couple of different secondary transfers onto bourbon-soaked oak, vanilla/coffee, etc.

 

Does Short's distribute where you are? If so then I highly suggest seeking out their 'good humans ale' for inspiration. Delish!
