Yep so apologies team. Turns out Barls and you all were not doing the case swap today....
Those of you still with crates at Barls's joint ended up with some stout.
Will do my very best to not miss the next one.

Thanks for hosting Barls, also thanks to all for a relaxed couple of hours after a stressful morning to everyone present.

Please drink mine ASAP.

For those not there on the day I filled from a keg the morning of the swap between the usual juggle of work and kids sport... Which isn't the problem. Issue is I also picked up some bottles to fill just before the swap and they were in a pretty bad way when I got them. Took a while to get them clean enough to the eye before the sanitise so there is some element of doubt in long term storage given the initial state of the bottles.

Any beers in the swap that need to be held for carbonation before I start chilling and tasting?

Are we giving feedback in this thread?

 

[barls]

we can do that or create a separate one. not fussed ether way.
mine needs a little time for carbonation but its one month from the date on the bottle.
