This looks like a Black & Tan waiting to happen. Waiting 2 months, that is.  (From beersmith.com)
For many years, I’ve wanted to do a better job of matching my beer brewing with seasons and major holidays. But I always found myself behind. When October rolled around it was too late to brew that Oktoberfest, and my green beer was always a bit too late for St Patty’s day. My stouts were always finished for the warm summer months.
To combat this, I’ve assembled a brewing schedule of sorts to help me have mature beers ready for the right holiday or season. To keep it simple, I’ve listed popular styles of beer for different seasons by quarter, and a corresponding list of which quarter you need to brew them in. The assumption here is that 3 months lead time is enough for me to assemble the ingredients, brew the beer, and have it mature properly. While I don’t brew all of these styles each year, it gives me a list to choose from. Winter Beer Styles – Beers to Brew in Fall, Drink in Winter:
Spring Beer Styles – Beers to Brew in Winter, Drink in Spring
Summer Beer Styles – Beers to Brew in Spring, Drink in Summer
Fall Beer Styles – Beers to Brew in Summer, Drink in the Fall

Here we have a listing of the current brews, what we currently have in the fermenter, in the bottle, or in our dreams. :)
Currently we aim for one five gallon batch per month. So with one week in primary, two or three in secondary, and four weeks in the bottle, we are about two months out from whatever we have just laid down.
