2007 Sa Christmas Case

[GMK]

Thanks Jayse...

I also have an AG American Brown - Lots of Cascade - been in the cube for a month...

Will bottle that up and see how it is - it was my 1st AG American Brown....

 

[Rustyc30]

so how many are we up to now

 

[GMK]

The AG American Brown - is not upto scratch - will need to brew something else.

I have a SNPA Clone Recipe that came out OK last time....

Or open to suggestions from the Case Group....

 

[Nedelz]

Wouldn't have any forbidden fruits lying around that you're willing to share Ken?

 

[GMK]

Since the brown is no good - might have to brew some Forbidden Fruit..

But need to brew it soon.

Could brew the Wiezen Bock that came 1st in the wheat/rye category at this years SABSOSA.

I for one am a fan of the weizen bock. Extremely good last time I tried. I have decided to do a Belgium Wit. Got all the ingredients I need and even scored some good yeast. Brewing it tomorrow, should make for a good day.

Hmm... most likely contribution will be a brown ale... I'm putting down a spice beer next weekend and a bit after that something else, but they'll be a little *too* green for the case

1 Peas and Corn - Most likely a brown ale
2 Nedelz - APA or Robust Porter
3 RustyC - Oatmeal Stout
4 Domonsura - Boh Pils or Un-named mystery brew smile.gif
5 BenH - ESB, eIPA or German Lager... still deciding
6 BrauFrau - APA (partial)
7 Adam - Possibly a 3-month-lagering doppelbock if it's any good
8 Homekegger - Hefeweizen or Belguim Ale (Not sure which one yet)
9 wee stu - Bonfire Bitter
10 Rehnton - one of 2 options: American Dark Rye or Best Bitter
11 Choppadoo - Dubbel or APA (whichevers better)
12 Wally
13 GMK - or possibly Tangent????/

Looks like I might have to pull out...

I have enough of teh Leviathan Barley Wine but will not be able to brew another Beer in time.

I have enough Westmalle Tripel - but it is still young - developing needs more aging.

 

[domonsura]

Bang it in a bottle Ken, there will be others that will require some patience before opening too

Sorry to sound like a broken record ... but stick a "best after" date, like coopers do, on the label.
Im soooo looking forward to tasting all this beer .. in the spirit of education.

The christmas case is always a good event- better than christmas, anyway

 

[drsmurto]

And i strongly recommend to any prospective AG brewers to attend - KYB if you cant get a brew done in time its still a great op to meet and greet a bunch of friendly brewers and watch the AG process get de-mystified by Wayne.

I'll be there, ring burning chicken in tow, just to meet a few more brewers and cause trouble.....the chicken, not me

Cheers
DrSmurto

 

[BenH]

I'll be there

And what beer are you bringing for the case swap?

 

[drsmurto]

Wasnt aware that i had been allowed off the bench? Dont you already have a full swap?

Flat out brewing for a mates bucks party atm so all fermenters full. Hoping to keg a few this weekend so i might have time.

At this late stage i wouldnt think much other than an APA or ESb (thinking in terms of beer i have made in the past - dont think its a great idea to try a new style and then handball any issues onto others) would be drinkable by xmas? Will flick thru the recipeDB and see if i can pinch a recipe.

I guess i could brew something and then if its not needed, keep it for myself or swap a keg if anyone is interested.

Cheers

I will not be able to do another brew in time for the swap - so will have to pull out.
Only have the Leviathan Barley wine in stubs at the moment.

Happy to arrange a few tastings for the guys at the swap on the day.

Please take my place.

Sorry guys.
