Found it at Northern Brewer, I guess that's a fallback if I can't find it locally.

I have read/heard somewhere that someone (John Palmer of "howtobrew.com" fame, maybe) uses sealing wax around the caps of bottles he plans to keep for a long time. I am planning a Barley Wine in the next few months and thought that I'd like to preserve it over the years and that the sealing...

Doesn't he also own (or part own) a brewery or brew pub or something?

5th place and a Bronze medal. It was in the "Speciality Beer" class - I guess the judges brace themselves for anything when it comes to judging that one :)

Another option is to brew a base beer (I used a German style ale) and then open some of the bottles after conditioning and place one whole, uncut birds eye chilli in each bottle and recap. I then tasted them over time to determine the optimum chilli taste - turned out 2-3 weeks for my liking...

576L between two of us ... my share was 400L. <edit>that's down from >800L the previous two years L

Trying to sell SWMBO on a family drive/picnic "with a few beers at the brewery" and got a favourable response so far but might need a little more detail to seal the deal. L.

just power this up and we have 3 more contenders for the Darwin awards.

Recently had a wander through the new Terminal 3 at Changi Airport Singapore. This is the one they built specifically with the new A380 in mind. Anyhow, at one point I looked down at the level below, saw the copper and SS and thought "F*)$ me, that's a brewery". Some poor mobile phone shots...

Typical, as soon as I opened my whiney bloody mouth a variant of Murphy's law kicks in and my judging sheets were in the letter box this arvo when I got home. Best thing is there was an error in my lager score and i didn't bomb out as badly as the published results indicated. Didn't make any...

Please note the following is a request for response to AHB Forum Members and not directly to the AABC organising committee ... I saw Ray's post above and was hoping that on my return from overseas yesterday that I might be so lucky as to find my judging sheets in the mail. Since I didn't, I'm...

AHB forum members, I have sent the following e-mail to what I believe is the official AABC 2007 e-mail address, I will post any reply I receive here: From: Lonte To: '[email protected]' Cc: Subject: AABC 2007 Full Results Gday, Could you please advise if and when the full results of the...

Thanks for the frank and open updates ... exactly the ticket and I will now happily (and silently) wait until next week before whining on again :) Just a quick question - how might the Best of Show (assuming there were plans to do one in the first place) be done now? If highest point scoring...

Strongly disagree ... this is exactly the forum where the future of this event needs to be discussed, and given the hiccups of this year there's no time like the present to start the planning.

Why not? However on reflection if we think of an APA as a Pale Ale, and an ESB as a Bitter, my whole premise goes down the toilet.

The key thing that has to come out of this is that a full analysis of where things went wrong must be made and strategies put into effect to mitigate those incidents in 2008 and ongoing. This will require honest input from this years organisers and fault (NOT BLAME) to be identified and...

bloke's gotta keep busy :P
