3.5 gal of the Dirt Wolf clone, the recipe of which I found on HBT and approx 2.75 gal of old ale that I'm deciding whether to oak or not. My first try at an old ale and it's already really good just from the hydrometer sample. Was shooting for ~9% and the 05 slurry took it all the way to 10.2%, but not too thin or boozy that I can tell. I'm gonna oak it what the hey
 
5 gal of IPA that was supposed to be a 60 min Dogfish Head clone, but the kit was missing ingredients. Namely the 60 min Warrior hop addition. So it is beer, but it is not what was intended.
 
Apple wine. 40 litres of really freaking strong apple wine. Probably need to tone it down with some apple juice and ice cubes when drinking it.

It sure is sad. But the upshot is that I have enough Barleywine, Wee Heavy, and RIS in my stock pile to carry me through. Not to mention 32 bottles of Cab Sav in my wine cabinet.

I won't be brewing, but at least I won't go thirsty.
 
11 gallons of Odds and Ends Pale Ale with the last of my Maris Otter, some Munich II and wheat. I used the last of my Northern Brewer for bittering and about 10 oz of Strisselspalt for late additions
