Well… Queen Nefertiti favored a good pale ale. Her husband Pharoh Akhenaten enjoyed a good stout.
But that little punk Tutankhamun was a real pain in the ass. Always whinin about something.
Nothin I made ever satisfied him.

 

[BrewMan13]

39, always plan on at least 1/month during my brewing season, but usually life gets in the way and it's a bit less frequent. I'm going to make a concerted effort to do it more often now, as I just spent some $$ to upgrade a couple aspects of my process.

 

[myelo]

13
I brew in my bedroom and every weekend me and my friends ride are bikes in the woods and get drunk while reading dirty magazines....gotta go, moms coming

C'mon ... you expect us to believe that?

Like 13 year olds read magazines .... geez.

 

[hagar]

I just turned 47 and brew at least once a month. 32 batches in 2 years.

Cheers!

 

[Setsumi]

52 years, 60l (15g?) every 2 months. Large batches helps with dry pipes BUT tough on inventory. Planning for varaity? An ESB or pale ale can be called many names... But then I live in South Africa, mind my local brew club does have one bjcp judge and he usually disagrees with my styles.

 

[okiepc]

I am 70 & brew 7 gallon brews every month or so. Pretty good hobby & I make some really good, to me, Beer

 

[6Tap]

45 and brew 10 gallons every 3 weeks.
Coworkers and neighbors enjoy tasting each batch.

[brewshki]

24, but only once a month on average. I have a very busy season for work, so it is often less during that time and more when things slow down. stocked up with 2.5 kegs before we got too busy. hoping it lasts me a while. planning a brew day this weekend! Tasty IPA from 21A.

 

[brhenrio]

33, brew 5 gallons a month

 

[secondbase]

35, try to brew once a week but it averages out to 3-4 times a month typically. My partner drinks more beer than I do and we have guests over often, so I have to brew regularly to keep up with demand.

 

[ESBrewer]

38 and 0.753 1gal batches a month.

 

[Funkychef]

33 and about 1 5gallon batch a month

[troglodytes]

[Murphys_Law]

I can’t remember if I posted or not...getting old!

Turned 53 today and have been brewing for around 3 years. I used to brew about once or twice a month but due to a new job and winter I have only brewed one or two 5 gallon batches in the last few months.

 

[Renegade Brewer]

36 and wife 35. Started brewing at 24 and we brew 15-40 gallons a week.

 

[Nugent]

Am 44 and this is my tenth year of brewing. Brewed like a fiend before baby (now 3.5 yrs) came along, which put me on hiatus for the better part of her young life.

Bought a Grainfather on Black Friday and have brewed more since then than in the past two years. Between her ability to watch Moana over and over (and over) and the Grainfather's 'independence', brewdays are back!

Saving money again.

 

[ba-brewer]

56 and a half, been doing all grain for the last 4 years, but did extract during the 80s while in school. I brew whenever a keg opens up, I have 5, 3 and 1.5gal kegs so I brew different batch sizes depending on what kicks.

 

[Renegade Brewer]

My wife was pregnant with our son in 2010 and we upgraded to our 1bbl pilot system at that point. It was our Christmas present, and she argued, “I’m not going to let being pregnant and having a baby stop me from brewing.” That’s when we went automated so we could brew and still attend to the baby.

 

[BoBoBenton]

I’m 27. Started when I was 18 with maybe 3-4 5 gallon batches a year and now brew 15 gallons a month when it’s not “too cold” or wet (March to November really) with a little help from my friends to drink that.
