I'm getting scared .. not about the keelhauling (could do with a good manscaping) but I picked the kisses and Hardy as something to do with with the Lord Nelson. Spending too much time at trivia competitions. Or your clues are too easy Peter.

Not expecting a Victory Horatio (crickey, how many puns can a thread carry) but an irish red currently fermenting is looking good enough at least to enter.

 

[DEALE]

Fantastic concept Peter I'll be sure to enter a few.

 

[Korev]

FG Now enough Hornblowing - is manscaping like landscaping?

Looking forward to your entry

Cheers

Hey Deale!
Poor form not to get at least one entry in, so this morning I did a Weizen.
Something quick to fill a keg (too many empties) and also be suitable for comp.
Not been brewing lately - too busy.

How will the beers be stored between the delivery deadline and judging?

 

[petesbrew]

Dropped my entry off on the weekend to TCB Thornleigh.
Looking forward to the feedback (and a prize of course!)

Hi,
What are your concerns? eg
1. Temp - perhaps your're hoping to get in some more time for carbonation before judging time??? As a competitor you should never rely on this.
2. Light
3. Disturbance of yeast
4. Security
5. Phase of the moon - sorry previous attempts have failed to influence
6. .......

Perhaps if you give some more detail, it might help P1 address your concerns.

Rgds,
P3

Yes, I was thinking about carb time, as I'd like to enter a brew that has been conditioning for a few weeks but I probably won't have time to bottle it until this coming weekend (26th / 27th).

I'm still very much a beginner, and you're right, if I am at all serious about competing I shouldn't rely on that time for carbonation. I'll reconsider entering that brew.

 

[Korev]

Most drop off points are not likely to store cold. The beers after collection will be in my garage and at this time of the year @ an av of 10C We will chill beers appropriate to style for judging.

I suggest that with ~ 2 weeks to condition should be OK

Hope this helps
