Qld Xmas Case Swap 2007

[Ducatiboy stu]

My PET bottles are made of glass

If anyone has a problem with that then HTFU..

I have had a **** weekend and dont really care anyway.... :angry:

But I did manage to get 26 Bottles of a really nice Red Ale that makes Kilkenny look ordinary


Tomorrow is another day....I hope.... <_<

I wouldn't worry Stu, so are some of mine.
And if tomorrow isn't another day, then it won't matter what they are bottled in...

 

[sqyre]

Sounds good, we usually have a closing date to confirm numbers for the bottling boys.

Do we have a consensus to close out the swap??? let me know...Perhaps we give the unsure 24 hours...

Unless you fall asleep early... h34r:

Lol.. i just got it... (i may not be very bright.. but i can lift heavy weights..)

Sqyre..

 

[Tyred]

You could let it slide until the end of the week.

The way I see it, there's about 22/23 in the case swap (23 includes the extra for FNQ BUNYIP). Probably won't change much from her on in.

"Something porterish" is bottled and slowly carbing up, so it's more or less set. All that's required now is a number to put on top.

 

[Snow]

Any chance someone could drag a decent sized BBQ along with them??
We had 2 last year which worked a treat for the breaky fry up..
or did we have 3?
Sqyre...

Bruce,

I'll be able to bring along a spare BBQ if you still need it.

Cheers - Snow

 

[InCider]

I'm going to bring some Rellenos to get in some early rectum burning. :lol:

And now really :icon_offtopic:

As you know, I am still K&K and bottling, giving everybody no end of mirth! But the end is near! I have a mashtun (thanks mike), and will be getting kegs etc over the next few months. Of course Bindi and Screwtop will be getting the most calls for help from me when I go FULLNUDEGRAIN to the Darkside of AG.

And where am I going with this sober ramble?...Well, I cannot get my beer done in time for the Xmas Swap, so...

AT THE NEXT BREWERHOOD MEETING I WILL BRING A KEG OF FULLENUDEGRAIN!

Anyone got a 'thingy'?

InCider.

To make up the numbers I guess i could put together a case of (glass) Stubbies with a combination of: a (porterish) Dos Equis & a (very strong) Coopers Vintage Ale. I don't have fancy labels, only adhesive ones, and as I mentioned (a while back when I first introduced myself) I use kits and at this stage don't want to go all grain (although I am pissed off at some of the results I am getting lately).

Anyway these two mentioned above are quite drinkable and I guess it would give me the opportunity (as a novice) to sample what is possible from you guys - so I'm putting my hand up for a bit of shitkicking - but if I drink enough on the night it won't matter anyway.

Speaking of which Sqyre - are you going to give us virgins a map to your place?

 

[sqyre]

Bruce,

Thanks Snow, That will be great...

Sean, i think you can make up for your pitifull attempt by taking the reins of the stairway on the swap day..
we will make a brewer out of you..
You can fire it up about 11am..

Steelbreese, i will PM everyone with instructions to get here closer to the day..
And i see no issues with you joining the swap if you wish...
Hell, we were willing to swap our beer for one of inciders...
Sqyre...

I'll cop that one on the chin Sqyre - taking a leaf out of your book

Is this the AG staiway?

Steelebreese, better get in early and book Sqyre's goat. I'm not kidding. Baa Bra is filling up quick Baa Bra's bookings are filling up quick.

 

[sqyre]

On a serious note...
I would just like to explain that i have no issues with kit+Kilo Beers being involved in the case swap or even being brought to the meet..
I only take the piss out Incider and his Kit+Kilo brews because...well...he's Incider..
If there is anyone out there who makes K+K and wants to get involved..dont feel apprehensive about joining in...
the swap is about getting together, trying beers and chatting about brewing... all kinds of brewing.. styles, teqhniques, equipment, etc..
So bring your beers along so we can try a few...

And Congrats to Frogman and his SWMBO and thier New Apprentice Brewer.. :super:

Sqyre... :beer:

 

[InCider]

Congrats Frogman!

Sqyre... :beer:

And on that note I'll nominate for starting gate number 9, 19 or 21. Fast out wide on a wet track he be.

Looking forward to being there - don't give **** about being a kit brewer - just concerned that I've had a few disappointments recently.

Somebody want to word me up on Sqyre's Goat? Should I start worrying now?

Now thers's an offer you can't refuse Sean. Hope you K&K guys are taking note. None of us have anything against K&K, I can assure you all, Frogman scared the ***** out of us with his K&K entry in the XMAS in July Case Swap. Point is we all want to help you produce the best beer possible, after all we have to drink 22 bottles of someone elses beer after a swap, and so have a vested interest in assisting brewers in producing their best attempt.

Cheers,
Screwy

LIST UPDATE...
Steelbreese in at number 9...

Do it InCider!!!

... or else I'll have a switch kick to the nuts waiting for you at the swap... motivated yet?

Just pre-empting any excuses: Surely SWMBOs & spuds & work can't take up that much of your time? HTFU.

Peer group pressure much? :lol:

Don't go there girlfriend

 

[Chad]

How are those beer labels coming along guys...Remember there's a $50 gift voucher up for grabs, or if you prefer a 19L keg (empty) for the best label B)

I've got something a little different this time to compliment my bottle and label which will hopefully become the norm for my bottled brews h34r: .
I just hope I will have it finished in time.

[FNQ Bunyip]

Come on Sean , Just get your ass over too the cave and brew , your carrying on like a real drama queen .. HTFU man ... All these offers of help are going to waste, I think I might move down that way just so I can visit brew mates ... Get your **** together .. don't ask her just tell her ...

Cheers

 

[kevnlis]

Sorry fellas, had a chat with SWMBO last night and we can't afford the $100+ in fuel for me to drive down there, not to mention all the other little expenses.

I would still like to swap my case if anyone in Bundy will be making the trip and would be willing to carry my goodies? Free beer for the first to volunteer

 

[sqyre]

List Update....
Bonj's Case Beer changed to Bright Ale..

Hey Ned - move down and you can drive me around! haha!.

SWAMBO is the least of my obstacles believe it or not :super: It's more a tidy up the house to get it on the market to get rid of the mother in law and move away type issue! I've been a busy bee trying to win the lotto to move her on to a padded cell different location and keep her inherent negativity, sourness, pessimism and bitterness from poisoning my 2.5 children. Her only redeeming feature is that she has opposable thumbs, but I do consider it more my luck than planning. She's killing me! :blink:

I leave my wheelbarrow in the same place for 3 years. I come home and it's moved. I grown chillis in the same place for 2 years and she tells me to move them all as they are wrecking the retaining wall, and tainted my the septic. I tell her politely to go forth and multiply - she's been eating them for years! When I go to the shed I find all my thongs (3 pairs) have been taken from outside the door, where all the family's shoes are, to the laundry in a plastic bag. I could go on all day. Menopause is killing me. I used to feel sorry for her, but as can happen to lonely people, they are willing to sacrifice a lot (my marriage etc) just to keep one or two family members close.

Thank goodness I have my wife onside!

And you are right about all the great offers of help - I am chewing Screwtops' ear off and interrupting his dinner every second night with keg questions, going to take up Batz' offer (might be a Xmas/new year) and really just need a "thingy" to stop things exploding. Frogman??? :lol:

Ahhh....cathartic rant....

 

[Batz]

going to take up Batz' offer (might be a Xmas/new year)
