Qld Xmas Case Swap 2007

[Screwtop]

Looking forward to "meeting their makers" rather than "meeting my maker"

But I've just been told I've got 2 weeks to pay my tax bill and we all know that if you don't pay your taxes - chances are that when it comes to the ATO and you owe 'em - it can be tantamount to meeting your maker!!!

:icon_vomit:

Shiieeet

Welcome Steelbreese, tel em **** em, tell you need the money to make home brew. Screw the ATO.

 

[bonj]

Okay... 2 announcements:

1. IF you're coming to the swap, AND you aren't on the brewerhood mailing list AND you want to be THEN please PM me edit: with your email address and I'll add you to the list.
2. IF you're in the case swap AND you want a spiffy looking barcode for your spiffy looking label (are we still having a label comp for this one?) THEN you can go HERE and get the corresponding file for your position in the swap. There is a scalable .eps version and a preview .jpg version for each barcode. The font on the jpg version is dodgy, but that's just the conversion software, not the original .eps . EDIT: Yes they are genuine Codepage 93 barcodes.

 

[Jye]

Just on labels... does anyone else have a hard time removing some? Soak seems to jack all :angry:

I soak mine in hot water and that does the trick for most...
Otherwise oxy action type pre-wash strain remove spray helps...
Some are just hard to remove...

 

[troydo]

how do you attach them?

 

[winkle]

Believe it or not milk works well on glass bottles but NOT on PET bottles (as I found out last swap ).

 

[Ross]

Whoops... I forgot about the label competetion, we discussed at the last swap.

Ok Guys & Gal....to add a little fun...

CraftBrewer will put up a $50 gift voucher for the best beer label. This will be judged on the night, with 1 vote each. In the event of a tie, I'll make the deciding vote.


Cheers Ross

Swan Export Low-carb Diet Lite! :lol:

BYO Baa Bra!

 

[stillscottish]

Big Snip

Campbell, does the Old Jock ale refer to the filtration process?

Yes, It's a new reverse filtration procedure I picked up overseas.
It adds lumps and crusty bits to give extra body to an otherwise flabby beer.

Sink your teeth into an Old Jock - yumm! :icon_drool2:

[TidalPete]

Looks like I don't have to bring my party keg as a country bumpkin from the Near North reckons my beer's too green.

3.Tidalpete too green sorry

Alright, so it looks like nobody bit? As you can see from the latest swap list below I have changed my (attendee) contribution to what it is supposed to be. If any SA out there changes it again I will turn up at the swap empty-handed. Deadset!
