    I rarely stray from the ISO:FT forum nowadays so I apologize in advance if this is a topic that has been discussed recently (I tried to search but could not come up with any topic similar to this).

    Anyway, while organizing the cellar tonight it got me thinking about what people have the most of. I assume for some (including myself) it may be the main "craft" brewery that they discovered early on.

    I have always been a Jolly Pumpkin fan boy, and currently have 48 bottles in the cellar.

    In second place is Russian River with 43, and third place is Cantillon at 31.

    So, what brewery do you own the most of?

    Cheers!

    Maybe this would belong in the cellaring sub-forum? That said, I usually have no more than two sixpacks on hand from one brewery at a time, and maybe some bombers from them. Right now I have 16 SN beers, but this is mainly because I love celebration so I would buy by the case when it was out.

    Ahh, you are correct. I suppose I meant beers in the cellar rather than six packs/cases. Cheers!

    Lets see, like a case of Coffee that goes across all vintages, one Rare, three or four King Henry, one Vanilla, one Juliet, one Cherry Rye, one Big John (first bottling), a three or four year vertical of Bourbon County 12oz, and a 2009 Bourbon County 22oz. This is only because my collection is VERY low right now, period. Before this week, I hadn't done a trade other than bottle for bottle since May.

    I currently have 48 bottles of Black Note. Does it still count if one of those cases belongs to someone else?

    I have 2011 and a 2012 Brooklyn Black Chocolate stout that I am going to age up and then do a vertical in a few years but other than that nothing. I want to start aging a few more stouts if I can though.

    65 bottles of HOTD (including magnums), with more currently on its way. Sadly, only one is AftW.

    Another way to think of it, HOTD is 28% of my current cellar.
