Despite being pretty busy these days, I've been able to get some brewing in:
First, I brewed a somewhat hoppy American brown ale. It was originally planned as a very light brown ale, but while at the store I ended up getting double the hops (whole leaf Amarillo) and "roastier" malts than planned. Not too sure what's going to happen there.
Second, I just bottled a coffee stout. As an experiment, I made 1/4 of the batch with about twice the amount of coffee I thought would be appropriate. I did a taste test at bottling and, yeah, it tasted inappropriate. But I think the coffee might mellow out a bit after some conditioning and refrigeration.
So two more fun brews in the pipeline. Looking forward to them.
