...turn the caps anticlockwise to remove them from the bottle, then when full of beer...

Informative, and incisively written.

They should make this a sticky.

Might have to do a weizen, unless Batz bribes me with Alt.

What about tucker? I thought the "bring a plate" thingy worked well,it made it heaps easier on Julie and I that's for sure.
Just one thing with it,those who bring munchies need to also put them out to be devoured,I found several bags of goodies that never even saw the light of the bar.

As Tidalpete can never have one of these at his place,I would like to nominate him as case swap monitor :beer: :beerbang:


On ya Pete !

I feel for you Ross I really do, but Ned doesn't get many chances to come down our way so I will go for the 28th. :beerbang:
Besides, we still have to get that croc of his into Batz's dam & the airlines refuse to carry it. :lol:

[PistolPatch]

Great to see the list management hasn't improved at all. Top stuff guys :super:

Winkle, I know you are damn dissapointed that I can't moderate the case swap into a model time and motion study but rest-assured that I will be moderating closely the post count to this thread and all especially witty remarks I will link in The Funniest Posts and PMs You Have Ever Read thread which I trust you have all subscribed to by now.

Better whack InCider's bottling advice in there I spose. Ah! Who needs a Frivolous Posts thread when ANY Qld thread is in play?

Sounds good, lets see now Dominos is within 5 minutes easy walk, so probably 30 minutes staggering time/then add the loss ratio to distance travelled :blink: - ok delivery might be best

Hey BD,

I would leave out the carapils, it already has a lot of unfermentables with such a high original gravity. You dont want the residual sweetness to be cloy and if you can get a low FG (1.016) it will be very drinkable.

Maybe dry hop the Ahtanum so you get a real aroma hit and the cluster should bring something interesting to the hop mix.
