Cheers mate. My boss says you brew at work for the social club?

 

[evoo4u]

That list which Zorco just posted (2 above this one) is out-of-whack with the spreadsheet. Could be confusing.

Spreadsheet is master.

I don't brew at work and the social club is taking a break, but I have been bringing in a few ales to share; mainly to show my appreciation to someone or the team.

The mini kegs are in circulation with people who are keen for take-aways for their weekend.

 

[pcqypcqy]

We're nearly there everyone, thanks for filling out the spreadsheet.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QJCZhtkNq3HbZ1jkbNsq_U_51SMveMK-y19n7M4EutI/edit?usp=sharing

Just need to confirm what beers @nickxb and @Insensate are swapping, and if @Motabika is coming or not.

There are now 5 free spots (potentially 6), so happy for people to start listing their second swaps on the main list. It also looks like I do not need to eat a hat, which is a relief.

Just for knowsies in advance, around what time are you likely to be there on the Friday mate? Without knowing for absolutely sure, I reckon there's very little chance of Motabika showing...he seems to have dropped off the social media map.

Still not 100% sure, but it'll be day time when I arrive. Let's say not before 4?

Yep he got the shits with someone and missed the last swap. If he hasn’t confirmed by now he ain’t coming.

 

[Insensate]

I’m definitely swapping thanks guys! I’ve got a zombie dust clone fermenting out Now.

 

[madpierre06]

I'll send you a PM mate with my address and phone details to get that over here.

 

[winkle]

Beer is bottled should be about 4.4% abv after bottle conditioning, a fair bit lighter in % abv and colour than desired (that'll teach me to tweak a already solid recipe for something like this). Still it should be a nice, easy drinkinking, slightly tart, breakfast witbier.

 

[Randai]

Yeah the beer will be bottle soon and should be around 4.3-4.4% abv depending after bottle conditioning. I actually have bought some tooheys old to bring along and if the tooheys 1922 XXX is done carbonating, would be interesting to do a side by side. I have no clue if they'll taste similar.

 

[pcqypcqy]

Righto, preemptively I've taken Motabika off the list and put Madpierre's second beer on the list. @nickxb just needs to confirm his beer.

With he and evoo4u's second swaps, we're looking at 20 bottles each currently.

List will be frozen at COB today.

 

[Siderman]

I’m taking my beers over to Alan’s today. How many swappers?

 

[pcqypcqy]

I’m taking my beers over to Alan’s today. How many swappers?

20 at this stage, but it may change. I'd take as many as you have just in case, and you'll get your spares back (or can arrange side swaps).

 

[earle]

I’m taking my beers over to Alan’s today. How many swappers?

It'll be locked down this afternoon but if you're dropping to Alan's before then I would pack 21 - looks like 20 at this stage but 21 if Motabika makes a reappearance.

If you're not attending you don't always get your spares back.

 

[winkle]

I'll bring a couple of the Keg King gas bottle valves with me, I can vaguely remember someone asking if work "stocked" them at the last Swap.

 

[Randai]

Also many props/thanks to @madpierre06 and @evoo4u for double swapping.

Also wtf is up with all the saisons, to me its looking like dark beer + saisons swap.
