It is this time of the year again to check the brew logs and do the tally.
I brewed 22 times and made 110 gal of beer. (3 times less then in 2009).
How much did you brew last year?
What was the beer you brew the most?
Look in your logs and have a fun.
I brewed 22 times for a total of 114 gal. I don’t really have one beer that I brew the most. I tend to brew ESB, Ordinary Bitter, and IPAs so I always have some in the house. I have decided to brew an Old Ale and Barleywine as a vintage each year.
Well… the noob started brewing on November 21st…All extract with specialty grain … 3 batches of APA, a Belgian IPA and a Kölsch. Two are still fermenting the others came out great. Meanwhile the AG system is nearing completion…
I documented 45 brews, all around 3gal. I also made quite a bit of wine.
This noob brewed 7 - 5gal batches.
I lost all my notes but think at least 80 gallons. Plans are to hit it this year.
First year brewing. Did three 5 gallon batches. Got 132 bottles total. That’s 12.375 gallons of finished beer.
Batch 1 was a Red Ale. 2 was a Witbier, and 3 was a Scottish Ale. I’d like to try for once a month in 2011.
12 batches. 60 gallons. Brewed a good mix of Pale Ale, IPA and Ambers last year.
No comment. I smell a rat here. 
Probably about 120 gallons, not nearly enough since we drank 40 gallons in one day for Oktoberfest. I had 10 taps last year so I always had really wide variety and never concentrated on any particular style.
This year I’ll do better and should brew our (my wife and I) legal limit of 200 gallons.

How does all that beer get drank? 40 GALLONS in one day? I’m lucky if we go through 5 gallons in 3 months. The curse of living “so far” from the reach of the RATP I guess.
22 batches for about 122 gallons.
I brewed about 630 gallons since Oct. 1st of this year. ;D Of course I guess I really don’t count.
21 batches for 115.5 gallons
13 batches for 65 gallons
19 batches for 95 gallons.
Friends and family drink a lot of it, especially my daughter and her friends. Not that they come over and pound my beer, but she’ll come by with her roommate or some friends a couple of times per week and have a few pints. I probably have 3 pints almost every day, and we have a few very big parties every year-Mardi Gras, Oktoberfest and Labor Day. Most of the beers are 4-6% ABV so I’m not talking much strong stuff. In fact my last keg of Imperial stout took over 2 years to drink.
25 batches for 125 gallons. I brewed IPA and Porter the most.
I came up unusually short this year compared to years past, but in any case, I found the time to cram in 18 batches for a yield of just under 85 gal. It was mostly ESB and Pale, plus the usual double batches of brews that I age for varying lengths of time before consuming (IPA, 19th century (strong) Stout Porter, Christmas Burton solera, and Sack Mead). I also did a couple batches of mild (in the modern sense) ale that were very nice during the summer months.
I managed also to try some historical recipe re-creations this past year.
I generally don’t like to use use recipes which are not of my own devising, but If you haven’t been to Ron Pattinson’s blog (http://barclayperkins.blogspot.com) you owe it to yourself to visit.
Besides Ron’s debunking many of the brew myths that we have been buying into for years, the recipes that have been posted at his blog (which were recreated by Kristen) are pretty phenomenal…incredibly well researched and mighty tasty.
