Chappo's Bogan, Brew, Beer And ****s Day

[Tony]

After a good day's driving, El Hefe and I have made it back home....

First and Foremost, a huge thanks to Chappo and his lovely wife for hosting such a fat time. It's no small thing to throw your house open to 40 odd brewers, some who you have never met before and then look after them and make them feel welcome.. Much respect!

Second, thanks to my partner in crime for the weekend, Les the Weizguy... he made doing two batches on the day run like a clock and is always great company on a road trip.

Finally, thanks to all the other brewers for the great time we had. You're a really great bunch of blokes and it was fantastic to meet you all and see how you do it your way and how you have put your equipment together. I hope this turns into an annual event because I'll be there for sure..

and Bonj, you very nice ranga boi... I keep you on my employ as my numer 1 IT geek and number three lady boi prostitute...

Another fantastic day, with great company..... thanks heaps to the Chappo family for hosting yet another top event.
Met some new brewers & tasted some great beers, especially liked the ones with the home grown hops & remember having a great Bramling X bitter.
Huge effort from the Sydney boys to make the trek north, hope you had a ball & look forward to seeing you at future gatherings....

cheers Ross

Well boys what a fookin' fantastic weekend. Thanks to everyone who attended and made the day what it was.

The Thank you'se

Big, big, big thank you to Mr and Mrs Sqyre for all your help and efforts. Without you guys I doubt we could have pulled off the day. Now all i need to do is workout how I can even repay you guys. Also need to work how to exact some revenge for the Goats and Escort services . Had to pull into the local BP this morning and was getting fingers pointed at me and I heard some snickering.

Thank you to Franko, Pompy and Hogan for making the huge effort to drive 12.5hrs for this event. I don't think I have ever laughed so much.

MASSIVE thank you to Shooey and Les for the huge effort of driving 790km's brewing 2 double batches and driving home again. That has to be some kind of record? And thanks for having some patience while me and Mrs Chappo were having a moment.

Mr and Mrs Sully thank you for helping out on the day and keeping Mrs Chappo somewhat subdued. Although it did cost me a couch.

PaulWolf thanks mate for coming down all the way from Rocky and helping me recover yesterday with some beer therapy .

Thanks to Mossy, PaulWolf, Goldy and whoever else helped with the cooking. Thanks to BrownDog and the Ippy connection for breakfast. :super:

Thanks to all the lads that helped to tidy up the place yesterday.

Big thanks to Lilo and Dougie for helping me get setup and providing the cooling capacity for all the kegs.

Great to see Screwy.

If I have forgotten anyone sorry but I'll buy you all beer next when we catchup.

Cheers and Beers

Chap Chap

[mossyrocks]

What can I say that hasn't been said before, Chappo's days are magnificent due mainly to the exceptional hospitality of Mr & Mrs Chappo.

Good to catch up all the regulars and also to meet some new faces especially the blokes from down south who came up for the weekend.

Roll on next event.

Cheers,

mossy

 

[Cannibal Smurf]

Sounds like an awesome one, sucks that I couldn't make it due to previously arranged plans. But I'll be in for the next one, it's been far too long between drinks with ol' chap chap & sully.

 

[Pumpy]

Great to catch up Tony with you huge happy family , on the return trip from Chappo' s and try some of that Classic beer of yours and see where Schooey got the idea for his brewery from, We should have that Maggie stuffed .

Hogan , Franko & Pumpy

My mobile phone rang this afterneen while i was brewing. I looked at it, a mobile number and thought...... a break down in a mine i will have to try and fix.

It was Pumpy

Do you mind if we drop in this arvo.......... See you then i said.

Pumpy, Franko and Hogan dropped by for a couple beers and a laugh. It really caped off a great day for me!

Frank...... cook a big pork chop on the grill and layer it with that sauce mate !!!!! its sooo good with pork!

had a laugh as they were reversing out the driveway......... had to pull a dead maggie out of the grill....... my kids were horified. Is it ok dad?

such is the result of a long road trip.

cheers

 

[Gavo]

Gavo I think you left your keg behind let me know what is the best way to get it to you mate.

Not mine mate I got it here...

Anyways

Thanks to Chappo and Mrs Chappo for a great event and the massive amount of work put in getting it together and catering for us high society types. Good to see you didn't fall in the pool you big lump of man candy this time Chappo.

Thanks Sqyre and Mrs Sqyre for the hard work put in with the smoker food, once again it didn't last long, a testament to your efforts.

Thanks to all the brewers who took the trouble bringing your rigs to the event, it certainly made the day.

Cheers
Gavo.
