You could go with Carnelian ;)
If only it was that dark (I may or may not have had to google carnelian...). This beer is orange or naranja if I'm feeling fancy ;-)
 
Guys, I'm not gonna be able to make it on the day unfortunately. Band has a gig booked and I can't get out of it. I'll drop off my contribution beforehand and I'll organise to pick up my swap afterwards.

Gutted, been a while between beers si
 
Swap Saison bottled, was darker than anticipated (an Evil Saison?), weighed in at 6.6% too so should be interesting. Stuffed up my volumes and only ended up with 22.5 longnecks, so will bring 22 Saison + 2 Three Shades of Stout from last case swap brew.

Looking forward to it although will only be there for a little bit (Mrs. Birthday and work Xmas function that night)!

Yeah, tell me about it! FTG/Ringwood seems so far away now compared to when I lived in Donvale...

Need to try and get down to an event and catch up with some people now that Uni is over. If you're at the case swap early enough I may see you there when I drop off my swap.
 
Bottled the Rye IPA I made for the swap today, thoughts from the hydrometer sample are that I think it might need some more bitterness.

Will be 7.9%

'Just trying to coordinate:....

Everyone OK with a walk-in $10/head contribution towards food/gas/water/electricity/chastity-belts(for Cocko)?

Obviously, there will be a certain "massaging" of $ for folks who have contributed food which will be worked-out on the day, but I reckon $10 is a nice simple number.

There's going to be a "per-cube" cost to those who are taking a cube from the brew, but that's another story......

$10 to give or get from Cocko?

I contributed to food - but I dont want no $10 head from Cocko.

$10 for Cocko is way over priced.....
 
Due to unforeseen circumstances my brew will be pitched next week and should be pretty solid ready just before Christmas. I seriously need a bigger fermentation fridge. One FV at a time does not cut it. Might be pushed for time frame but also hoping to bring a keg on the day if time and taste permits.
 
The date fast approaches. How is everyone going? care to update the list? How about the various tentatives? No one wants to jump in and fill the vacant slot? What is everyone bringing? how many cubers are we able to accommodate?

Could I be #23 on cuber list? Happy to chip in for ingrediemts yada yada, it appears there will be about 25 cubes is that correct?
 
Can't hurt to chuck your name down, I think we'll struggle to fill em all though.

Who knows what magic can happen on swap day though
