Plan to get through most of it but bottle age half dozen or so until next winter. Going to put another one down before the end of the year hopefully.

Russian imperials are best left minimum of 1 year, longer is better. Mine are normally aged between 2 and 3 years and only 1 year for my stouts and porters.

You should be asking that question to the Pirate....i mean there's no way we should allow him to kill his liver with his Russian stout....

Bottled up my 2 canadian blondes

And cos I used the US-05 Yeast, ive decided to try and reuse it in future brews.
It should create a faster start to the fermentation process.

I know of some guys who once bottle a brew dump in the contents for the next brew on top. However, the beers have to go from a light to dark profile.
Im contemplating doing it once I bottle up my Munich lager style putting down a Dutch Lager with 80g Hallertau on top of it straight away.

Put my Ale and Lager in my 19 litre kegs and carbonated during the week.
Tapped them yesterday for a drink.
The Ale is very good but the lager needs a bit longer as lagers normally do.

Did a Mexican lager and a draught in the fermenter this morning so I have plenty of beer to drink.

Love the look of the Lager.

Im testing a very green and undercarbed Canadian Blonde.
Moved my bottles from sauna to my bar and already noticed some bottle conditioning.
Next weekend will be a better test taste.

Still got Mexican cerveza and my munich lager to bottle up. Possibly next weekend.

Mine is the Mexican cerveza as well.
Might try the Canadian blonde next.
