Qld Xmas Case '06

[Batz]

Back to business men,
With 30 attendees and only 8 kegs being supplied, we need a few more brewers to step up to the plate and supply a keg for the night. Buggered if I am going to start cracking open warm bottles of half carbonated beer at 10pm at night.

cheers

Browndog (minding his P's and Q's)

I can bring another 3 gallon if we are a bit short,I'll need a tap for that one.
Of course this is if I don't have to work,no shuts till xmas I was told,off to Townsville next week then Tarrong a couple of weeks after.
Rumour has it Millmerran is still to come as well,hope I can be there

Tony,

I'm sure no-one will turn up without grog, whether it be bottles or kegs, so i wouldn't be too concerned. I'll probaly be bringing my party keg setup with me, but if not I'll be loaded with bottles :chug:

cheers Ross

 

[sjc]

Some of us, well maybe just me, don't keg but I won't come empty handed.
I'd be happy to fill a keg if someone wants to provide one for the filling in time for the swap.
Cheers
Stephen.

 

[Batz]

Not everyone kegs of course,bottles are cool for these shows.
Looking forward to Tidalpetes brews.

[Screwtop]

The SOC brews a bloody nice beer :beerbang: :beerbang:

Batz

SOC! :lol: :lol: FOTFLMGO

He does make a good drop the old Mudshark.

I volunteer'd a party keg way back I think. Still the case, I'm kicking in 11 or so litres of something. Promise I will try it before leaving home, no more infected brew embarrasment for me.

 

[sqyre]

Well if everyone starts out with the wonderfull assortment of Brews everyone else is bringing.

Once everyones taste buds are numb i can fill you all up with my usual radiator cleaning

concoctions. :blink:

Remember the signature " What doesnt kill ya, only makes you stronger"

Forget the Epic, this is turning into Jimboomba Beerfest 2006, maybe those bringing kegs could bring marquee's to set up down Sqyres driveway and he could sell tasting tickets at the gate. Nah forget that everyone would be totally pissed by the time they got to the shed.

Hows the punkyins n corn Batz? Ya no ma waf's uncles was raised on corn n punkyins, "wuz all we cud grow till weed cut down all them trees, we solt them flinderzie trees ta the mill fa muny"

If you get offered a beer out of that keg guys, make sure you're standing near a window.

(Sorry Screwtop, couldn't help myself.)

Screwtop has no need to be embarrassed about his beers. All tops that I've had - except one... Of course this was the one and only keg he brought to Batz's Yeast Swap - lol. Friggin' brewing! Your first infected brew is most likely to be the one you are so confident in that you don't even worry about tasting it, keg it on the day and then whisk it off to a swap! LOL.

I did a brew recently, started at 4:30am and totally disobeyed Ross's brew training - I didn't drink. Was so confident in my evaporation rates I didn't take any volume readings. Ended up with a 2.5% Schwartz instead of 3.5% and had to ditch the excess. Not a bad beer though surprisingly.

Looking forward to your keg Screwtop.

:beerbang: Pat

 

[Batz]

Things are not looking to good for me at this stage,I have just picked up three shutdown jobs before Xmas.
It's very likely one of these may overlap the swap,if not it will make it difficult for me to brew my contribution anyway.
I have requested sqyre put me back on the "hope to make it" list.

Sorry I may not make it but earning some cash before xmas is important as well.

Well I brewed 40L of American wheat last night and split it between US-56 and Nottingham. Hopefully a few bottles are ready for the swap and we can have a comparison tasting.

Looking forward to that Jye - Swaps a month away, we might be lucky if there's any left B)

I haven't even brewed my swap beer yet - Hopefully mon/tues next week, if I don't get a quiet day I may have to drop out the swap ...

cheers Ross

 

[Aussie Claret]

Well tha American brown (40l) was brewed last weekend and it's nearing the end of fermentation.
Smelling and tasting very nice already from the hydrometer samples.

I'm unsure whether to filter and keg or just bottle condition, what do you reckon?
