2014 Vic Christmas Case Swap

[idzy]

You TEASE!!

C'mon Idzy.....spill the beans on this "low-key" stuff...

Haha, I think the idea was, wow there is a massive kettle that we can all use, that won't be getting much use without a collaboration brew day, so quite a few guys were keen on making it a bit more of a regular thing. Not sure on any details as yet, but will definitely have to organise something soonish.

[Tahoose]

Sweet, now to think of a brew I'm thinking something rye at this early stage.

 

[carpedaym]

I'm switching to non-swapper. I've subbed Siborg in, and will PM him momentarily.

poggor, you've made it onto the "reserves" list.

The swap is capped to 24 swappers - but don't worry there are bound to be drop outs between now and the swap.

Being a reserve doesn't stop you coming along on the day, meeting a heap of awesome blokes and enjoying a few beers and some good food.

Essentially if you get bumped up on the list of swappers - you bring a case of 24 longnecks of your best brew and go home with a case full of 24 different beers (one from each swapper).

Either way its a great day

 

[Yob]

.. and the pools likely to warm up quickly with 20 cubes in it :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[Grainer]

Smoked rye?

 

[Yob]

Smoked rye?

not yet but Im willing to give it a go..

oh.. hang on.. thats not what you mean is it?

 

[technobabble66]

A few suggestions:
Ozzie Pacific Ale - for patriotic reasons to support our new burgeoning style! Also, dead simple malt bill we can hop the hell out of in whatever combo we want (i assume we'll be cube-hopping again, so gives lots of variations).
Saison - Because we'll be fermenting in summer.
Amber Ale - great maltiness, and again we can opt to hop the hell out of it in the cube, if you want.

Hi poggor, Grumpy has covered it all above. I'd just recommend starting to plan & brew as if you are swapping so you won't be caught out at the last moment.

If you don't end up as a swapper (odds on you will be) bring some along on the day & share out around for appreciation or feedback. Cheers

 

[JB]

Actually, looking at dates, I'd better start getting my own shit together!

 

[poggor]

Okay sweet! I'll brew up a batch 'specially!

[poggor]

Certainly hope someone drops out of the case swap! cause im a'brewing a big **** off batch!...
