2025 Brewing stats

I did well until about July/August...
Very poorly after that
Gotta go and check how many brews
 
I skipped the spring and summer but was busy last winter and this fall.
I got 115 gallons so far. Several batches were splits so I got plenty of mileage out of 11 brew sessions. I'll get in another session or two over the next couple of weeks and get another 15 or 20 gallons - a Dark Lager and another Whiskey Mash.
5-gallon kegs per style:
Golden Ale (various) - 4
Irish Stout - 4
Cream Ale - 3
Bo Pils- 2
IPA (various) - 2
Pale Ale - 1
Irish Red - 1
Amber Lager - 1
Belgian Wit - 1
Brown Ale - 1
American Amber - 1
American Lager - 1
Whiskey Mash - 1
 
Got an IPA and a light lager/cream ale planned before the new year
I wanted to put up a big batch of my Bo Pils before the end of the year so it could settle nicely for our winter party at the end of January. I don't think I can get it going in time because I still haven't brewed my Dark Lager and that'll be in my big fermenter for 2-3 weeks.
I could throw down 5 or 10 gallons of my Cream Ale pretty dang quick, though. It's at gravity by day 7 and ready to keg by day 14. If get the BioFine dose right, it's running clear within a couple of days of kegging. :)
 
How much did everyone brew In 2025? For me,12 batches. This is less than normal for me. I did move and a few batches were larger meaning I was stocked up longer.

Yikes! You guys are way more organized than me. I have no inventory of the beers I brewed this year, I remember some of them, but not all.

I will now hang my head in complete shame.
No need to hang your head. Since I use Brewer's Friend for all my beers, it was just the click of a couple buttons to get that info.

I end up doing a BF brew session on most beers but since I use my own spreadsheet calculator, sometimes I end up brewing without a record on BF. I have all the info in my spreadsheet with dates and notes but I don't have things compiled in a data base like BF does so I have to scroll through all my recipes and count things up. :)
 
I keep printed copies with notes in a binder.
The sweet stout was my 90th all time batch, 49th using the Brewzilla, and 10th of 2025.
I also have a spreadsheet sheet.
