Dark Horse here in MI made 9300 barrels last year with a 7 bbl system.  Not a nano, but you can be making a lot of beer with a system of modest size.

You might want to check those numbers Jeff - that works out to brewing more than 3 times per day, every single day of the year.

Yeah, that was wrong, in 2010 they made 6179 bbls on the 7 bbl brew house. A 20 barrel came on line midway in 2011.  Does 6179 still sound too much? Read about them here-

Yes, 6179 per year on a 7 bbl system still seems like too much.  I believe it, but I don't believe it is something anyone should try to replicate

The article said they were doing 4 to 5 brews a day.

How about Paw Paw brewing in Michigan, 277 barrels on a Sabco 1/2 barrel system.  They did brew shifts, and now have a 7 barrel production system.
