I am almost 59. HWMO, my Lovely Brewing Assistant, is 67. We brew, on average, probably a 5 gallon batch a month, maybe a bit more in summer, less in winter.. Also cider, wine, and mead.....and drink most of it ourselves. Unless my Auntie and Cousin are visiting, they help put a dent in our stock!
 
34 and been out of the business since late summer 2015. Life, work, moving, and more life in the way. Looking to get back this spring! Actually my first post since prob 2014 or 15. If I had it my way I'd always have one in the hopper, as it were.
 
Hello everyone,

My name is Calder and I am a brewaholic.

58, brewing on and off with wine and beer since 1985. Last few years have done average 13 x 6.5 gallon brews a year.


29 myself. Usually brew 10 gallon batches twice a month. Friends usually end up getting half of that.

I assumed you are married, otherwise you just busted the legal limit of 100 gallons per person per year. And admitted to it.

25 and brew 10gallon batches 3-4 times a month... Looking to opening a brewery one day

Ditto.

I'm 75, brewing and consuming 5 gal/mo.

That's great. I hope I'm still drinking that much when I'm 75 without affecting my health.
 
Hi. I'm Carl Gallagher, aged 12.
I'm learning how to brew beer to pay for my dads new liver.

All tips are appreciated.
 
Probably born feb 29th. 11=44

I'm 36. I brew 5 gal every few months. More often around events, camping, summer holidays. Usually do 3-6 5gal cider/wines a year depending on what fruit is available.
But thinking about scaling back to 3 gal batches so I can brew more often.
 
40, I recently switched to 10 gallon batches so a little more than one batch a month. Probably have to ramp that up in the summer. I also brew professionally on a 50hL Brewhouse (~42bbl) almost 1 million liters last year.
 
Cliff's Edge Brewing, started in Spring of 2016 @ the age 37. I brew anywhere from 2.5-5 gallons ever other weekend. My girlfriend and I consume most of it, but there is a decent amount I give away for unbiased feedback.

2018 brew year kicking off tomorrow with a Belgian Tripel! Cheers!
 
I'm 39. I work at sea, for half the year- when I am home I brew 1-2 times per week (6 gallons)

Man, appreciate the concern about the law....I'll start over in case the government is watching...
I'm 29. Usually brew once to twice a month, in 10 gallon batches, with my 2 other good friends. We then split it between all 3 of us. My loving wife approves of this hobby, bless her heart.
 
53 I’ve been brewing for 8 years. I brew a half barrel every three weeks or so.

Lots of friends to help me drink it all.
