Oh I see you guys cant go hard for one day, come over we will show you how to do it :chug:
Nev

 

[Yob]

Oh no Nev, we go plenty hard, just we brew vast amounts as well so its prudent to start the night before to get warmed up the equipment sorted..

One of these days I'll take you up on that Nev..

:kooi:

More than welcome, we will avoid Belmont and Armadale (jyo town ) .
Ok we dont brew on our case swaps, hence only one day of mayhem.

I call BS Nev. From what I hear nothing goes hard when jyo's involved...unless Yob drags Cocko along.

I'm really sorry but I have to pull out, I know it's late notice and a pain in the arse (especially as I'm supposed to be helping with the food) but I've got a commitment I cant get out of. I'm forfeiting my place in the swap and in the cube list, and I'll try to get the beers I made for the swap around to Yob's during the week so they can be split between everyone as they were brewed for you guys anyway. Gutted I can't make it, I was really looking forward to meeting (some of) you guys in person.

[Yob]

Bring ya mittens and coats folks, looks like it'll be cold and wet..

 

[Mardoo]

For some reason that makes me happy

 

[Yob]

Didn't think you were Canadian...

 

[SmallFry]

Thought we'd just huddle around that rocket-engine of a burner you've got planned for the big brew.

Should feel like we're in Dubai within about 15 foot of that baby.

 

[Cocko]

Yob, Can I asked the planned brew time? I know I am not involved but really wanna watch this EPIC batch be made....

Also, is anyone else bringing a keg? Reason I ask, is I can bring an eski that will fit my stumpy style and probably 2 more cornies side by side or I will just bring a bucket for mine and ice.

only 2 more ice addict sleeps! WOOT!

 

[Yob]

Plan is.. most of the work will be done on the Friday so hope to mash in 10am (ish) at the latest.. If I can get that water to strike before that, we will mash in as soon as we can.. Having done/seen swap days before things rarely run to plan.. But we can hope eh?

 

[Cocko]

Massive.

Arrival times adjusted accordingly.

See you midday-ish.

Awesome.

 

[SmallFry]

Have a (half-a) keg of porter, so it wont need fridging, just good to go at winter ambient.

Will be there around 2 'ish, Metro willing.

 

[peaky]

Being an observer, I reckon you guys should mash in at 3pm. Guaranteed circus performance! :lol:

 

[Yob]

Being a swap day brew.. Circus pretty much a guarantee mate

Despite telling my wife about the all important case swap in July, by not having it displayed in giant text on the refrigerator (kinda like facebook but not as encompassing) she has promised to babysit for the SIL's anniversary that night leaving me with the kids. The only benefit from this is, while I can only attend for a few hours, I've guilted her into dropping me off and picking me up. The only good news is, due to a lack of brewing lately, I'll only be able to bring my case swap beer and a sixer of TED's. How's that good news you say? Because Cocko's bringing a keg!
