Another solid month . . .
September 2024
In: 0
Out: 13
Net: -13
Moved back overseas in mid-September, so my out number was (negatively) impacted. Won’t be back to the US until March 2025, so if I can resist any purchases, I’ll flatiline until then as I’ll be (sadly) separated from my collection.
This needs a bit of work, starting now…
Year to 30 Sept:
In: 107
Out: 57
Net: +50
in: 3
out: 8
In: 0 (no purchases and no bottling this month!)
Out: 13
However…for the year from Jan. 1 through Q3: +15
September: 13 out, 12 in - net 1 decrease. Small win after a slow start, but I’ll take anything to keep the trend going.
Q3: 36 out, 44 in - net 8 increase, 2.66/month. Need more small wins.
It’s for a good cause
Better than last month
In: 13
Out: 25
September:
in - 6
out -4
Month +2
YTD
Plus 13
Goal is to finish the year with a net reduction.
Got to get to work on the consumption side
After two consecutive monthly declines, my first ever, things are back to normal.
22 out
42 in
October will be grim, then hopefully a winter moratorium until Berserker Day.
+29 for September. Oof.
+132 YTD. Oooooofff. But still better than last year.
Another big Bedrock 2023 release in, presumably, November, so I really need to behave in October.
I hope Q4 2024 is a real turning point! September was great and is hopefully a leading indicator:
in = 26, out = 95, net = -69.
Still up n = 139 YTD. I have a big party in October that should help and selling some stuff as well. If I can get close to 0 by the end of the year, I’ll be psyched.
Out: 15 bottles consumed and 15 gifted to my daughter
In: 15 bottles each of 2023 Julian Haart and Florian Lauer
A bad German vintage is desperately needed…

Hah, a bit like me asking for my annual Rayas allocations to be reduced!

Dude, you gotta up your drinking. And I thought I was a lightweight drinker…
