....all been said in the previous posts....but thanks again to Bruce & Renae for putting on another brilliant swap.
As usual, fantastic mateship from brewers new & old; we really do have something special up here in Qld that I've not seen anywhere else. Bring on the Summer Swap

cheers Ross

Firstly, a big thank you Mr & Mrs Sqyre for organising and hosting such a top event. The food was fantastic and the beers even better. Also thankyou to Ned for the great Prawns.

Also a big thankyou to all you Blokes (and you too InCider) for making a nOOb feel welcome. It was a great honour and pleasure to be in such great company, wealth of information and comradeship. This definately tops the most memorable nights that I DON"T remember much . Thankfully I left with my ass intact and escaped the white hoods with mash paddle initiation.

Cheers and thanks again.

All I can do is echo the sentiments expressed by all the previous posters. My first time at the big green shed. Many thanks to Bruce & Renae.

Great company, great beers (especially enjoyed your IPA Browndog).

Now able to put faces to names.

Looking forward to many more.

Cheers

Hey guys, I have a confession about last night. It's something I'm not proud of. h34r:

 

[bradsbrew]

Once again thanks to Renae and Bruce for the top notch hosting and organising. Great beer, food and company. Nice to put faces to names. The flight to Rockvegas this afternoon wasnt so enjoyable though.
Cheers to Sully for the lift. Does anyone have any photos of Ross' new walking billboard(aka Jay).

Hi Everyone

Hope you all have pulled up ok this evening

I can't believe I'm still awake, after just 2 hours sleep last night!

I too have a few people that I would like to thank

first of all I would like to thank Ned, he was a fantastic help on the day. Getting up at the crack of dawn to help sqyre get the pig on! THANKS NED

I would also like to thank Browndog for the awesome mash paddle.. And screwy for your kind words! Im sorry Im not much of a public speaker, and I wasn't really expecting to be called up. So I apologise for my aweful speech. Sqyre is the funny one in the family.. :lol:

I would also like to thank Stu for bringing the lettuce and carrots and grabbing the oysters, I am spewing I am not aloud to eat them otherise I would have been into them.. YUMM Also a big thanks to everyone who brought nibbles/supplies along.

Also I want to apologise for not getting my swap beers done, I did try to get around to as many of you as I could to explain what had happened. And I know alot of you did try it on tap. And I really appreciate the feedback. I will get a case in the july swap for sure, we just get so busy organising everything its hard to fit everything in.

well thats pretty much it for me, Im sure sqyre will post tomorrow sometime. He and Ned have had a big day today, they spent the day on the banana lounges upstairs trying to polish of the kegs.. :lol:

till next year!
Renae
