I can't remember what cube I took home but fermented with US 05 a couple of months ago and it was, shall we say, ordinary. I'll see what it tastes like tonight and hopefully age will improve it.

It must of been your special 'alt' ber
 
Checked the FG on the Brown Porter and it's ready to bottle. Tasting Rooly noice too (even if I do say so myself).

Bottling tomorrow or Sunday, depending on which day I go into the Australian and how much trouble I'm in from the wife.

Crikey Thommo, you're one bloody organised bloke!
I've barely even given thought into what to brew. :(
 
Turning over a new leaf Muggus. This will be the first case swap I've been in where my beer is actually carbed in time for the swap. :chug:

Haha nice! You're setting an example for the rest to follow I reckon.
 
hi guys.......I'm a new member. with the 28 bottles, does it have to be from one batch? I have 3 batches in Primary fermentation (and almost ready for 2nd ferm) @ about 19L each. Could the extra bottles be from another batch? (assuming I have time off on that day). cheers and thanks!

Yes no problems - has been done before. Just label the bottles so we know which brew was which and that will allow feedback to the brews to be identifiable and relevant. Welcome to the swap.
 
Is this just for all grain? As I am still only kit and extracts?
 
I've got half a keg of that is the result of the last swap, not sure which of FGZ's creations it was, but I'll gas it up and bring it along.

Guesss I better remove digit from posterior and get brewing, think I'll try my Hobgoblin type recipe again - the first one I had disappeared over the course of a camping weekend and I really wanted more...
 
Brewed my American hop burst today....

Cascade 70
Chinhook 35
Williamette 75
US Tettnang 70
Simcoe 35

Prepare for taste bud assault....
 
Bump.

Only 21 people??? That's shocking NSW!!!!!!!! VIC and QLD are powering along....where's the love??? hehe :)

Let's get those last 7 spots filled! Just over 4 weeks to go so plenty of time to get a brew on.

MM :icon_cheers:
 
+1.

I bet there are some lurkers who really want to give this a go. Please do. We dont care how you have made the beer (not like some of those other states) as long as the bottles are correctly primed. Generally, bottle bombs are frowned upon :lol:

Cheers
Andrew.

I remember when if you didnt get your name down on the day the swap opened, you missed out.

I've got my entry audibly (and quite loudly so) bubbling away in the next year.
Some sort of English bitter hopped with Whitbread's Goldings. Never used them before, but it's smelling tasty! :icon_drool2:

Bit late getting one down for this swap, but tomorrow is brew day - a Remberance Ale maybe? Nah, it won't be good enough for that.

Either way, brew & cube tomorrow, pitch the next day, should be bottled just before swap day.

Speaking of which, anyone got any crown seal longies that they want to offload (will pay $$)? Given that December is starting to look like one long drinking session, draining a couple of cases of Coopers, whilst enjoyable and good training, probably won't help my waistline any.

And all those Sydney/NSW brewers that don't think their beer will cut the mustard, jump in and have a crack, you won't regret it - I don't, I've had some great beers out of the last two swaps.
