Congrats mate but sorry to not see you take part

I'm out of the country for 90 days on the 13th of june, would be interested in doing the swap before then.

Otherwise is there someone I could drop the case off with and pick the swap case from in exchange for some other beers or some ingredients?

I might be able to pick yours up, I've sent you a pm.

 

[barls]

Do you want this one Scott or am I hosting

 

[srcossens]

Do you want this one Scott or am I hosting

what was the consensus for the best date? I'm happy to host either month if you are busy.

 

[barls]

I'm happy for the date I already put up otherwise its yours mate.
What's everyone's thoughts on the date.

 

[fletcher]

happy for whenever although i'll be overseas in late july so not fussed when it is. brewing mine this week

 

[Ester Trub]

The later the better for my beer.
It needs some time to age.

 

[black_labb]

Is anyone against the Idea of me doing 2x stubbies for the swap? I can't decide between 3 different brews at the moment which I want to part with as I do single batches and it would be a pity to have only a few bottles of the batch myself.

Otherwise I'll just rebrew something which is no problem.

 

[barls]

The original idea behind no stubbles, pet or champagne bottles is some people felt short changed and the didn't always fit right in the crates. Ie 28 longies fit in two milk crates.
Personally I don't mind but others might.

 

[black_labb]

I understand, If any single person is against it I'll happily follow the stated rules without any hard feelings.

edit: I might just do the belgian pale, It'll be best fresh and I can brew another when I get back from overseas.

 

[monkeybusiness]

I don't really care what type of bottle I get. I have heaps of bottles laying around from my pre-kegging days.

For people thinking of pulling out because there won't be enough time to brew, as long as you haven't stuffed it and can get it into the bottle before the day you should be OK. Of course it's nice to have the beers ready to drink straight away but there's something to be said for having the beers ready at different times (can't drink them all in one weekend now can I!) It's not that hard to wait a couple of weeks before the beer is ready.

I've been known to be bottling on the morning of the swap though it's not advisable
