What next?

[ColoradoXJ13]

Brews I have done since Nov:

Dunkelweizen
Spiced Christmas Ale
IPA
Magic Hat #9 clone (apricot ale)
Long Trail Amber Ale clone
Apfelwein
IIPA
Saison
Belgian Witbier

I am out of the first two (actually have 3 bottles of the DW but is sucks), almost out of the IPA....

I am lost as to what to do next...maybe something like a stout or cream ale. I really like Breckenridge's Vanilla Porter, and Left Hand's Milk Stout, but they seem like winter beers...with the saison and Wit I have some great summer brews to drink, I don't really like Pilsners...I am at a loss...:shrug:

Since you have plenty of brew to drink now, and later, I suggest brewing some BIG beers to age until next year. Barleywines, huge IPAs, Old Ales, Stouts, and big (very big) Scottish Ales all benefit from extended aging. If you want something to brew that you can drink in a couple months, I would suggest a nice, malty, refreshing and restoring 70/- Scottish Ale.

Since it's March, how about a marzen or a dunkel for the fall? (if you have the ability to lager)
Or a stock pale ale or ESB for the summer

How about a spruce tip brown? Had one last fall that was pretty good. I forget the brewery, maybe from the northwest? With the fresh growth on the trees, it might be a good time to cut some tips and try one.

As soon as my pale ale is done, I'm making a brown of sorts with left over ingredients that have been piling up. No spruce tips though, hmmm or maybe there will be. I do have a nice pine tree right outside my front door.

I can't lager so the marzen/dunkels are out.

I am going to go shopping and get a barleywine, see if I really like them. I like the idea of a big stout or Scottish ale...big fan of Old Chub and imperial stouts...

The IPAs I have been making are pretty big (OG's near 1.08) and delicious.

I am not so sure about spruce tips, not really a flavor I like, but I haven't made a nut brown yet...hmmm, more to think about.

Oh, and I have 1 primary and 3 secondaries, and another primary and 3 secondaries on their way...evil thoughts...
