5 gallons of old ale from a parti gyle a few ago. Finished primary and divided up.
1 g with bourbon and oak
1 g with my mixed sour culture
3 g secondary
 
A red ale that's finishing up primary and a pumpkin spice ale brewed 2 days ago. Hoping the pumpkin will be done by Thanksgiving.
 
35 liters of cider from my own apple-trees, 30 liters of gingerbread amber (kinda like christmass beer) and 25 liters of single hop red pale ale - BIAB. A lot of bottling in november :)

Already waiting to go into vessel: coffee stout, gentle pale ale and black IPA :)
 
I've got 2.5 gallons of blue moon clone in the fermenter right now. My first all grain batch and I did it on the stove. Been in for about 4 days now, hope it turns out well
 
5 gal of a smoked, oaked and peppered porter which will be bottled in a week.

Also finishing primary fermentation on 5 gallons of my barleywine which will age another month before bottling.

Next week I'll replace the porter with a cream ale.

Na, it will be gone by May. I’ve never aged it. I might bottle a couple of 22ozers just to see if it gets better.

If your winter warmer is anything like the one I made you will not want to be drinking it until June or July. And it will not really be ready until August or September and will not peak in flavor etc. Until January 2020.

And for me winter is over by the end of February or early March. May is late spring.
 
Got two 5.5 gallon batches on day 5. They’re pretty much done, just cleaning up now. I do something interesting when I try new hops for the first time, I make a WC IPA and a NE IPA to try to understand how the hops perform on both the hot and cool side. This time the hops are Medusa and Huell Melon.
 
I’ve got a mystery Pale Ale on day 4. Was supposed to hop with Galena, Centennial, and Cascade at flameout. My point was to use up the remaining Centennial and Cascade I had on hand. When I was cleaning up and putting everything away, I noticed I still had a bag of Centennial and Cascade. No idea what I hopped this with, hence my mystery Pale Ale.
 
Dust in most of them, but there is a very well fermented dead mouse in one dry carboy. Luckily I don't use carboys anymore and I'm gonna put wort in my conical(after I clean the dust out) as soon as I get the water report back from our new filtered well water. First beer will be a hefeweizen.
 
7.5 gals Belgian golden split between 2 fermenters
2 gals patersbier
6.5 gals hi test barleywine, currently at 13.6%
Bottle conditioning ~6 gals tripel
Cold crashing Belgian quad 5.5 gals.
Getting seriously bored with lockdown, and I have 3 empty fermenters. Hmmmm...
