How much do you brew?

[Hawoh]

How many batches (and gallons) did you actually brew in 2010?

How many do anticipate you will actually brew in 2011?

As sparked from curiosity from Kyle's comment:
"The 50 IMPERIALg limit is quite generous, and it is at once. I doubt the annual production of most homebrewers is even that much in total per year."

do you work for the government?

20 batches (5 U.S. gallons each, roughly) in 2010.

It'll likely be somewhere around 22-24 in 2011.

[Gil Breau]

only started AG brewing in Feb, been going at 2 kegs a month strong.

About every 2nd Sunday, on average. Sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less. Don't keep logs any more - So I'm guessing 26/yr.

Hawoh, you'd probably get a little more response if you indicated what you want this information for; it doesn't seem like an "I'm just interested" thing to me

I've been doing about 3 a month, although, some months are less.

When Dave and I met with the Executive Director of Public Safety for NB (to lobby for more homebrewer-friendly legislation like transportation and competitions), he clarified that the amount we brew a year is inconsequential as long as 50g AT ONCE is not exceeded.

I've only come close to the 50 gallon rule at once last December when a confluence of events would have had me around 35 gallons in house...sadly I now have nothing on tap, but I think you MAY have known that already...
Last year I would guesstamate about 20 batches of roughly 5 gallons.
The plan this year is (starting VERY soon) to brew a batch a week, though that will likely be very front end loaded with 3 or 4 batches a week until I get 12 full kegs, then slow down and hopefully maintain 6 on tap with the new tap closet I'm planning with 6-12 in the production cycle at any given time. Given I drank Kyle's Koolaid on the 6 week rule it's gonna take some serious work to get the cycle established, but I hope it will be worth it in the end.

18 batches in 2010

I'm currently 10 batches into 2011, I expect to hit 18-20

[Brian_S]

I've been doing 2 batches a month on avg. so 24 last year but I've got a wedding this year so I tend to think I'll exceed that as I've been brewing at least one batch a week since Feb.

I only keep 11 kegs on site just to be safe (and only brew if there is a empty keg)

Keep in mind I just started this year in late January, using kits only so far, including the Ginger beer I have kegged, I just put on my 12th batch tonight (Morgan's Blue Moutain)

Holy cow I gotta catch up with the rest of ya. Judging by the weather lately,  my beer consumption is forecasted to increase drastically
