You're a little ahead of me, Ken. My garlic is close but not ready. I'm growing exclusively the Early Red Italian and it's usually ready right around June 1st. We have 2 or 3 leaves brown but I usually wait til I see 6-8 leaves brown. I did dig one a couple days ago and it was a nice size. Do you ever eat it fresh? We ate the bulb the same day we dug it but found it to be a little too "not sweet" if you get my meaning. I figure curing will help the sweetness.
