Nsw Xmas In July Case 2007

[PostModern]

I've got a bottle problem. Will have to whip around the IBUs to see who can bail me out with the loan of a few dozen bottles... Otherwise, all on track. The stout is conditioning in secondary and looking good.

Sorry to see you dropping out, berto. Really enjoyed your beer in the 05 Xmas case.

 

[kabooby]

Count me in :beerbang:

Got two beers in secondary at the moment so will bottle one off them this weekend. May need to leave for a few weeks to carbonate properly.

On second thought i'm going to drive up my case to Pete's on the day - so if anyone in the Inner west or on the way (i will go from Stanmore onto Victoria Rd, then to Carlingford via Marsden Rd) wants me to pick up their case and drop it off let me know. Should be some space in the exy to take a couple of crates.

Good onya Kabooby, looking forward to trying your contribution! :beer:

 

[Barramundi]

*PoMo if you get really stuck for bottles give me a yell , i know dont live 'close' as such to you but if your stuck i can help out

*DJR no probs , will probably see you out at petes on the day ...

*Kabooby welcome to the swap ..

*has anybody heard from the novacastrains as to them getting their beers down for swap day ??

 

[shmick]

Haven't heard anything from the other Novocastrians apart from an offer from MHB to transport the cases to Sydney in his ute.

Unfortunately the swap day (30th june) is on at the same time as the farewell do for Keith the Beer Guy at MHB's shop in the afternoon so I doubt he (or anyone else) will be capable of doing the run afterwards.

Any of the Newcastle guys got any ideas?

oooops thats no so cool , perhaps they need to come down the day b4 ??? they can always be dropped off early either at Petes or my place if need be ....

Cheers Barra, but the IBUs have come to the rescue. Organising a pickup this weekend. Thanks to bitterman and capretta for their offers :super:

 

[Barramundi]

good to hear you got it sorted PoMo....

 

[shmick]

I just dropped off my cases at MHB's and it looks like I'm the only one so far.
Mark wasn't there so I have no further info about the transport.
Maybe he can drop them down the Sat before (23rd) and somebody else volunteers to cart them back?
There will be 14 crates if all entries are taken down but it can be reduced to 10 if the ones staying in Newcastle are kept behind and sorted later.
Still, I doubt 10 crates will fit in my car in one go, otherwise I would come down and get them the day after the swap (1 Jul).

It would be good if all the Newcastle guys got their entries in by next Sat morning (23 Jun) just in case.

If anyone needs to drop em off earlier thats fine.
PM me, and i'll send you my details.

Sorting will be fun... hope it doesn't rain, cos it'll be done in the front or backyard

[Trent]

I have no idea about the transport from Newy and back, but if it helps, I will make sure my cases are at Marks by the morning of the 23rd.
All the best
Trent
