15 Gallons
Greg and I completed our SIXTH batch of home-brew last-night, which bring our total amount of "Beer on Hand" to over 15 gallons (though none of it is drinkable yet.) Last night's batch was a "California Lager" or steam beer. Similar in style to the Pre-Prohibition Lager we did back in February but much darker and more full-bodied (think "Anchor Steam" clone). It should be REALLY hoppy with a fair amount of bitterness. We tried a few new techniques during the mash and I'm pretty excited about our end results. So we now have 5 gallons of steam beer (any name suggestions?) sitting in the primary fermenter, 5 gallons of the Phat-Buzz stout in 12oz bottles, and 5 gallons of the highly-experimental rasberry brew in bottles as well. I received the finished graphic for the phat-buzz label from Matt yesterday and it turned out really good!
If only Greg and I could think of a name for our "brand" I could finish the label and print them up...
