I still have two brews on deck (Sweet Stout & A 60 Schilling).

But I think we're close enough to start assessing our "damage" as far as brewing in 2007.

So how bout it, what's your final tally for 2007 looking like?

Here's mine:

Here's to doubling our efforts next year. :D

Wow, and here I am with a record year coming in at I believe 25 gallons. Now, of course 20 of that was in the last 2 months. Here's looking to a bountiful 2008!

Since March 1st I've done around 125 gallons or so.....and I ramped way up towards the end of this year. I'm totally going for 250-300 next year if I keep up the 10gallons every week and a half schedule

*Equipment I need:
Keg

I only brewed 45 gallons, but I started in August, so if I extend that out to 12 months, it's approx 108 gal/year. I hope to brew atleast that much in '08.

Including apfelwein, I'm currently at 102 gallons. I may sneak in another batch or two in before the end of the year.

While it's not in BierMuncher's league, that's not a bad total, especially when you consider I didn't brew my first batch of the year until the middle of May. I feel like I'm pulling my homebrewing weight!

I'm at 110 gallons of beer and 65 gallons of Apfelwein this year. I have 15 gallons of Apple Juice ready to go before the end of the year, plus I'll be brewing over the Christmas holiday, so the number will bump 10 to 20 gallons.

13 5-gallon batches = 65 gallons total.

Here they are:

I went AG about 2 months after joining HBT. Coincidence? I think not. Next year I hope to brew at least 20 times.

50 gallons total : 10 X 5 gal. batch. Traveling for work slowed me down a little, but it also funded what I made. I want to double that in 08

I've brewed 2 five gal batches since I started last week, so that's 520 gallons in 2008. :eek:

How much homebrew do people usually give away? I assume brewing over a gallon per day is rare (it takes me a week to go through a gallon of milk), I'd imagine it has to be a ton given to friends and family and such.

And 35 gallons for me in '07.

I'm on 23 five gallon batches of beer plus 5 gal of mead and 3 gal of cider.

I hope to get in two more batches before the year's end. So... 133 gallons total. :tank:

Oh yeah, I only started this hobby in May... :rockin:

I brewed 70 gallons this year...gonna start doing apfelwein soon so my total will be higher next year

I would be surprised if I ever brew more than 100 gallons in any one year.
