This past weekend, a few of us briefly discussed brewing on May 17th. I'm willing to host in Memphis, but I'm also willing to drive to a more central locale. I think Maxson wants to put the brewmobile through a few tests to try and get it ready for the Brew-B-Q this summer.

Anyone interested? Location suggestions? Beer ideas?

Well, since we had a few big brewing weekends lately, I thought I'd post a few of the recipes brewed, updated (as far as I know) with actual gravity readings.

Eventually, I'll find a better way to store recipes on this site... ie something other than linking to the recipator. Anybody got any ideas?

Brewed on 2008-02-09
10 gallons of Sunnybrook Kolsch (all grain)
10 gallons of CHIPA (all grain)

[NOTE: At the last brewing get together, m1 took a lot of pictures throughout the day. He blogged about it here, but since his site is pw protected, I decided to republish it (with permission). Enjoy!]

So we had a big turn out for the Feb 08 brew... 8 people in all I believe. Too bad only 6 got full carboys! We'll need to expand our capacity.

Anyway - I finally reformatted the site logo and layout, and I think it should be pretty functional now. I updated the user list and want to try and use this site a little more. I'll post the recipes (as brewed, not as planned) later tonight. I'm still playing with the "Other Beer News" and "Brewing Site Feeds" stuff.

Alright folks. Summer is in full swing and I know everyones busy, but it's been too long since we've been able to congregate and brew beer. Let's try and get something going this weekend. There are a few options as far as I can tell:

Anybody out there?

Let's brew some beer this summer. My weekends are pretty open right now... any time in July (except the 14th) or in August (except the 4th) works for me. There's a microbrew festival in Indy July 21, and Brew at the zoo is Aug 25 down here in Louisville that we could hit up too.

The Wit's have been tasting good this summer, so I thought I'd give one a shot myself. Does anyone have any recipes suggestions? Also, I'll be brewing this as a 5-gallon all-grain batch Saturday morning (June 23, 2007), if anyone is interested in hanging out for a bit and sampling a few other beers I've got on tap right now.
