[SJW]

How do I get my name down for the X-mas in December NSW swap?

 

[Trent]

Steve
All you do is wait until it is announced by whoever cares to organise it (will probably be anounced in aug or sept) and then be very quick about getting your name up! Simple as that.
Hope to see ya in the december case

Guys,

I can't be arsed reading through 27 pages again. :blink:
Was it mentioned anywhere if we are doing info labels or stickers outlining the style, OG, FG, alc % etc etc etc?
Or can we just post the details here and people can refer back to this post when cracking open a new bottle?

Good to hear, I was going to do proper lables then got distracted. Now I have run out of time!

 

[PostModern]

Your number on the lids is essential.

 

[Linz]

There is a label on it, but no details

 

[Barramundi]

have most of the beers at my place that are supposed to be there now, a couple comin tomorrow morning , and i think thats about the lot ! if anyone else needs to drop case at my place gimme a call on 0419 523 680 , i dont have the net at home as after this arvo i probably wont be online again before the swap....

 

[Slurpdog]

I've got the work van sitting outside my house and will pick up all the cases at Barra's house on Sunday morn.
I'm aiming to be at Pete's place by 10.30.
Catch ya's then.

10:30 :huh: I thought we was starting at 10? I'm helping my sister move house near Liverpool and time will be of the essence for me. As much as I'd love to hang about and chat a bit, the sooner we start the mixing, the better for me... hope I'm not being rude...

If it's going to be 10:30 at the earliest, that's cool, too, I'll just leave the exciting packing activity at Liverpool a bit later.

 

[petesbrew]

No worries, PoMo. We'll try to get it done ASAP. A lot of guys have things on they have to get to.

Anyone, Just let me know if you need address details. If you need to pick up cases at a later date, thats fine, we'll sort things out.
Pete

I like to give the missus a bit of a sleep in on Sun morn's just for the brownie points but I think I can sneek away a little bit earlier when there's 2 cases of all grain goodness to be swapped and taken home.
Besides, I can call in on Motorex on the way home at Homebush to see some of my Harley customers.

No worries. I forget what a sleep-in is. We have three boys aged 5, 8 and 10! 7am is a gooooood sleep in for me So 10(ish), then?

I've got 2 boys aged 5 and 7, and lucky for my missus, I'm an early riser.
She likes a beer as well and so if she want's to taste some of the brews coming our way then she'll just have to get up a half hour earlier!

Hey Slurpdog

I am assuming you got my cases OK

All good Kabooby. Thanks for the extra.

I decided to see my supplier for some freshly emptied 800 ml bottles, as I wasn't keen to see (nor clean) the bottles which were inundated with filthy flood water under my house. I'm sure you guys/gals/gender neutral brewers appreciate that little effort.

Anyway, I cleaned and sanitised the bottles this arvo, and am about to bottle the Gose.
The tap sample appears to me to be a balanced mix of salt, sourness, wheat and coriander, but BOY is it cloudy. Maybe it's the wheat, or the overnight mash, or maybe the Hefeweizen IV yeast (is WLP380 noted for it's cloudiness?).

Anyway, just close your eyes when drinking it, or you could let it settle a while.
As I'm just about to bottle it, you'll have to leave it for a few weeks before it's carbonated, and then I'd recommend a couple of weeks in the fridge.

I'll bottle one in a PET bottle, to allow me to test it for carbonation (...the squeeze test).

I'll drop the beer to MHB tomorrow and avail myself of the Keith celebration beers/food.

I have 2 X 500ml bottles of Saison to go with the cases. Perhaps one for MHB and one for the host. Whaddya reckon, Pete?

* edit - BTW, the Gose is 4.2% alc, and the Saison is 7.9%
