I didn’t see a thread like this, so I figured I’d make one. I’m curious to hear about what Ratebeerians are brewing.

I recently bottled a Belgian made with:

Belgian Ardennes yeast
pale malt
carastan 17L
honey malt
orange peel
raw cane sugar

Cascade for bittering
Nelson Sauvin for flavor and aroma
Cascade and Nelson dry hop

40ibu, 7.5%abv, 5srm

Looking forward to drinking it next week!

Please tell us about your most recent homebrew in a similar format.

Cheers!

That’s what I like about homebrew. ^

The sky is the limit. I like to brew stuff I can’t buy.

I brew a lot of IPA. Last weekend I made a Simcoe and Centennial IPA.

12 lbs Pale
8 oz Carapils
8 oz Munich
2 oz Crystal 120 (bit of color)

1.5 oz Nugget @ 60
1 oz Centennial @ 15, 10, and 5
1 oz Simcoe @ 5

US-05

Plan to dry hop with a total of 3 oz Simcoe. Experimenting with not doing any flame out additions. OG 1.062, it should approach 7% ABV if it gets down to 1.010 or 1.009.

In December I’m planning to brew 3 batches. A Columbus and Chinook IPA, Belgian Dubbel, and finally a regular stout to close out the calendar.
