Bad Frog Beer!
Reminds me of a brew I did while living in the northwest,finished the boil but I could not drain the kettle.
After much swearing and prodding up the kettle tap,a frog floated to the surface of the wort ,only brew I chucked before fermenting.

Ned, I've got at least half a dozen here you can have, when you collect your grain - I'll put them aside for you.

Ned,

Can't remember if you are planning on driving or flying down to Winkles?

If flying, be prepared to pay big excess baggage for those freezer packs as they are very heavy.

With a little bit of luck, the extra money spent on petrol coming down from the Daintree will (maybe\perhaps?) cancel out the extra weight the freezer bags will cost you if returning by air?

It cost QR about 1% of their potential profits for 2007 to get me & the freezer bags back to the Sunshine Coast from Rossco's. :lol:

QR runs at a loss. Probably because of the freezer bags!

Bottled my Smoked porter this arvo. smells good , got one in the fridge with a carbonator cap on it for a little try a bit later..
Might need to age it a bit longer befor consumption..



Pete, Driving down for this one. only way I can work out to be apart of the swap..


See you all soon...

Finally got the case swap beer in bottles - 21in PET bottles (ran out after scraping a couple) with 3 others in case we go up to 24. Its a more mellow version of Screwtops beer but should still be pretty tasty in a month or so. After moaning about bottling I had a win with a pale ale I thought was a little astringent last week - tasted pretty good going into the keg so I had several taste tests to be sure. :super:

 

[frogman]

Opened a box I had in the brewery and found another 10 Gel Ice Packs.
Have another 8 at work.
4 still here from earlier posts.
=22 still to give away.

Put me down for a few mate. :beerbang:

Edit: Stout is down, to get chillied up for a case swap experience :blink:

 

[bconnery]

It's been an age since I used plastic bottles and I've had a few of the re-use ones not seal correctly.

Any ideas folks for the best option?

I've got about 5 so I figured the answer is a) wait and check closer to the day then ...

B) give them to people who have carbonation cap things or

c) give those people the back up beer 5 of which I set aside just in case...

I'm conscious of making things as easy as possible for the fools kind souls who've volunteered to be case swap monitors.

If b I was thinking people coudl volunteer and I'd write their names on specifically but if c I'll just label them slightly differently and put them in with the rest...



Would it be bad to try resealing them with a different lid?

 

[TidalPete]

Ben,

I take it that you are reusing the old tops on Coopers plastic bottles?
I got a pack of new tops trom Big Dub for a few $$$ & had no trouble at all.

Off topic I know, but can anyone remember the thread where someone explained how to use Google to operate the forum Search Function?
