[chubbytaxman]

I am not able to get into this case swap ... Too much happening at this time of year.
I will keep an eye open for the next one .. Mid-year I reckon ... Will try and sort a brew out for that one..

Cheers

I'm not in the Swap but was planning to bring a keg of my (still to be brewed) Eye of Sauron Rye Saison along for evaluation.

I have an almost full keg of my month-old Saltair Smoked Schwarzbier (2042 Danish) lagering away ATM. Which would you prefer?

I'm easy.

 

[seehuusen]

I might have to pop around for an impromptu taster Pete
To be honest, I'm excited about all the Saison beers, going to enjoy trying a few different types of the style. I have only tried one commercial sample, ages ago. My vote goes for Saison mate

Just bring a keg of the beer which you like the least, and a growler of your favourite

[hwall95]

Bottled my belgian saison today! Finished at 1.006-1.007. Bottled 24 PET bottles (All I had) so hopefully no more than 1 more person will join, otherwise may need to offer someone a glass version or use another brew...

 

[TidalPete]

Just bring a keg of the beer which you like the least, and a growler of your favourite

Now that's top-notch advice Liam. :super:
What with my Odds & Sods keg topped up with the dregs of the past 6 batches & nearly full, all I need is a fancy-schmancy marketing name & I'm home & hosed. :beerbang:

PS ---- Plus a growler of something or other I guess? :lol:

 

[Snow]

Guys,
sorry to have to do this, but time and commitments have defeated me and I will not get time to brew my case swap beer, so count me out. Still going on the night, though

That means lucky number 13 is available to all comers, below!

Cheers - Snow.

Added a Rusky as my swap beer.

Best I find a Pony sized glass.

Will bring down something bold and sessionable in a keg to suit the hot weather.

...It just might! I'm happy to hand over the mantle to a newcomer - I've had my time in the sun

 

[Donske]

what did you end up brewing mate?

Look at all the Saisons :icon_drool2:

Missed this somehow, I'll have an Amarillo/Ahtanum cube hopped pale ale, coming in about 4.6% ABV, not an adventurous beer by any stretch, but it is bloody tasty, good enough to be one of my house ales.

I was going to brew something special for the swap but the chance to get so much feedback on a beer I brew often was too damn tempting, always looking to tweak the recipe if called for.

 

[Ciderman]

My planned beer hasn't come up as expected so I'm regretfully pulling my name from the list. Probably a little optimistic that my 3rd beer would make the grade! Will still come along.

[seehuusen]

Had a little taster of my swap beer today

Looking forward to getting some opinions on it, although, I'm pretty happy with the flavors myself. I will definitely brew another Saison again!
There's a slight layer of sediment in the bottom of the bottle, apologies in advance for that, I should perhaps have let it sit for a few more days cold crashing, but I also needed the fridge space for the Christmas brewing to commence

 

[angus_grant]

Sarcastic wit brewed last night. Hit all my numbers so starting to dial beer smith in. Ferment will start on Tuesday to give my starter time to start.

 

[Snow]

Damn! foiled by my wife's X-mas party conflicting with the swap meet :angry: Looks like I'm totally out

have a good one without me, lads!
