At the end of 2024 I finally built a kegerator to pour Guinness at home. Towards the end of my first keg I got tired of estimating volume by lifting the keg and so I bought a flow meter. Once installed, I started dumping my consumption stats to a database. As a result, I’ve been able to get some fun stats for my Guinness consumption. At least my at home Guinness consumption. This doesn’t include pints I had at bars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First up, some graphs<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Guinness at 8 AM? I’m not opposed but I think the explanation here is that I needed some Guinness for cooking. I work from home so Guinness in the 16:00 hour (4-5 PM) is mostly due to that first beer at the end of the work day. I’m not sure why I drink less in the 17 and 18 hours before ramping back up at 19. Perhaps I tend to be busy preparing dinner at those times and then 19:00 is the after meal pints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, a look at how my consumption varies by day of week<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This is one of the few datasets where a pie chart is useful as there are only 7 segments<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I’m surprised that Sunday ekes out Saturday for the day that I consume the most Guinness. But I probably shouldn’t be. NFL games are on Sunday and I’m a Giants fan. I don’t think you can watch that team sober.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now a look at each month<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I didn’t pour any Guinness at home in November as I was on vacation for about two weeks. I kicked my previous keg at the end of October and I couldn’t source a new keg until early December. I definitely had my fair share of pints in November, they just weren’t at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For most of the year March was (quite expectedly) the month that I consumed the most Guinness. With about 1385 ounces consumed. I tapped that particular keg on the 21st of February so it was almost an entire 50 litre keg consumed in March. I finally managed to beat that during the holidays. I poured all 50 litres between the 3rd and the 29th of the month. This actually surprised me because there were four days during that span where I was out of town for a long weekend (where there was also quite a lot of Guinness consumed). Here’s my consumption chart for that keg<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Finally, some overall kegerator stats<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you do the math, I’m not using 20 ounces for a pint. Even though I use 20 ounce glasses, I find that after accounting for head I usually get 17 to 17.5 ounces in the glass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, my “Soberest month” throws out months with no consumption. So my zero ounces in November 2025 are not counted there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m not sure what took me so long to finish my fourth keg. Looking at my consumption chart for that one, there weren’t a lot of days with zero consumption. But on the days that I did pour Guinness, it was usually a smaller number of pours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These stats aren’t exact. There’s some calibration and rounding involved. But 500 or so pours of Guinness in 2025 gives me something to try and beat in 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
