Should be passing by about then, can make a detour. If duff takes a seat that leaves another 2 on offer from Gympie or pickup on the way through. Get on board and book your seats brewers.

I really should get a grip and decide on the Swap Beer recipe (I'm dithering over 3 ATM), but rest assured it'll be Belgian and Strong. The keg will be something not experimental this year, possibly self-propelled :icon_cheers: .

 

[Ducatiboy stu]

[winkle]

I dont think my beers would meet the standard as yet... maybe next year.

Wouldn't be fair swapping one of my dodgy arsed brews for some of the Serious Brewers beers.

Firstly... i'm gunna have to work out what the cover charge is... :blink:
I'm thinking $30 this year as i know i wont be able to get a Pig as cheap as last year...They have like doubled in price..
I got last years 35kg whole pig for $5.85 a kg... and the Butcher lost like 50c a kg because he didnt read his Pork chart properly.. "Quotes a Quote"

The last few years we have almost broken even with $25..if it wasn't Vet bills for the Chooks and Goats.. (thats you Sean)

Lets make it $30 this year and will invest it into the usuall requirements of Nibblies, Pig, Seafood and Breakfast...and shit Paper...
Unfortunatly i only have 1 spit... but i hope to have mastered my Yank-style Woodfired Slow Cooker by then..

All in favor say "eye"... especially you Campbell...

Sqyre...

P.s.- if there are any Hog farmers out there that have a spare 35kg suckling Pig they can sell me cheap.. PM me...
(i'd love to see that riding shotgun on the trip here.. :lol: )

Next year perhaps Sqyre, bloke I work with is packing up and farming saddlebacks up north (Organic farming from data/home theatre/domestic automation, a natural progression....). Has assured me I will be looked after once he's up and running.

 

[chappo1970]

Sqyre $30 sounds more than reasonable.

I have a double wood fired spit if you need it?
