2016 QLD Xmas Case Swap 17 Dec-Ravensbourne

[pcqypcqy]

Any takers to fill this spot???

Or shall we forever be known collectively as one beer short of a full swap?

I know we said no glass, but will 24 tall Castlemaine Cranberries cut it?

It ticks boxes that beer.

My 2nd beer finished fermenting, which is nice. Will bottle on Friday night.

If you want to go that road, am happy to sling a couple pesos to cover the costs.

Although I could see the taller bottles impacting on the swap surfing.

 

[angus_grant]

Alright gang, I'm out of the swap. Leakage from fermentor leaves me with not enough for pet's.
I'll bring the saison along in a keg instead.

Arse, first swap I've missed for a few years. It's going to be a boring Xmas period drinking my own beers instead of all the different swap beers.

:mellow:

 

[evoo4u]

I can do a couple dozen bottled rainwater...

 

[Liam_snorkel]

Angus pls.

 

[Motabika]

Seems the swap is turning into a Nerditos reunion .

On the real tho, beers on offer look great. Have fun all.

 

[angus_grant]

PTC: keg was leaking. Eventually found a leaking fitting. I've lost another 1/2 litre.
Which beer god did I piss off?
And how do I make amends?

Top the fermentor up with some xxxx bitter then bottle.... everyone wins

 

[Liam_snorkel]

Sounds like a good blend IMO

How many beers are you short?

 

[angus_grant]

Calculations were about 16 bottles so well short on swap numbers.
It's in the keg carbonating now.
Hope my eye gets better or I'll be missing the actual swap party as well.

Gentlemen, and others, coming up/down/across this weekend for the swap:

• If you haven't already, PM me for the location mud-map.
• Bring your swag, tent, whatever - there are acres and acres of flat clear paddock to call your own. If wet, lots of shed floor space.
• Bring a towel if you want, to have a shower Sunday morning. There are bathroom facilities in one of the sheds.
• Driving times? From Brisbane - 150km, about an hour 45. From Toowoomba - 40km, about 35 minutes.

Should be a great weekend! If you're coming from the Brisbane direction, as I mentioned in an earlier post, there is a very popular eating spot along the way, the "Old Fernvale Bakery". (opposite the park in Fernvale) Just look for the crowds and the cars!

And if time permits, take the very short drive to Beutel's Lookout, in the Ravensbourne National Park. Clearly signposted.

What time are we kicking this thing off?

 

[evoo4u]

What time are we kicking this thing off?

? Early afternoon - ish ? Around 2 ? or 3 ? 4 ? The later it gets, the cooler it'll be. But there's lots of shady trees...

Is there an established convention for starting time?

 

[madpierre06]

2pm is a standard acceted time.
