There should be four beers on tap - Smoked Porter, Hefe-weizen (sorry Batz), something high gravity and probably an Irish Red - thats if the brewing shedule (sp) remains on course.

Perry,

Having heard from Screwtop that your bar was top notch I must say that I am a little disappointed. :lol:
You do not seem to have my Sharkbait Brewery sticker prominently displayed?
To be in the running to be classed as a top notch bar this is an absolute must.
Must ask you about that Esk Brewery poster when we next meet.

Beautiful!

:beer:

I've had to change my planned beer for the case swap - an Acerola flavoured Wheat Beer. I had a big tree out the back covered in almost ripe cherrys, and just think of all that vitamin C goodness. Today I went out and harvested my crop - 4 acerolas in total! :angry: Either a posse of possums, platoons of parrots or battalions of bats (acting under instruction from you-know-who in Kin Kin) have conspired to derailed this wheat beer, for this crop anyway. So it'll be either a chocolate/oat/coffee stout or a wobbly boot clone (reserve) for the swap.

Everyone thinking of being part of this voted yet? - we should lock in the date soon.

 

[bonj]

Poll looks pretty conclusive.

Lock it in Eddie!

What... no life lines

The RIPA has turned out great but just a little harsh on the bitterness, I will probably drop the IBUs by 10 and up the dry hops Mmmmmm :wub:

 

[winkle]

OK, 28th is locked and loaded.

 

[Batz]

Great :angry:

I'll be at Millmerran Power over that period <_<

Have a good one guys

Batz

 

[FNQ Bunyip]

Oh bugger Bazt was looking forward to catching up Buddy..

Next one

I won't vote for a change though as I now have the concert tickets for the missus and daughter for the 28th ..

:beer:

InCider, quit your jibba jabba. If i ever catch you acting like a crazy fool again l will introduce you to my friend PAIN!

Yes I have discovered the new catch cry for the next meet up:



PS. Yes all soccer players are pansies.

hell-f*cking-oo!

Finally got the Wobbly boot clone in bottles as my offering in the case swap, although if I can tweek the stout recipe a bit more I'll probably go with it. Wife is unhappy since I moved the secondary fermenter into the laundry not realising that the tap was cross threaded end result was a very sticky laundry, me losing 1 or 2 litres of good beer and sticky cat prints spread all over the house Oh well sh*t happens <_<

 

[bonj]

sticky cat prints spread all over the house

They have to walk in it don't they...

 

[Zizzle]

sticky cat prints spread all over the house

So you had to apprehend and punish the sticky pussy too?

The end of July usually sees me with my company away weekend, "not compulsory", homebrew club annual comp and now case swap... It was really going to be a case of 2 out of 3 and I really would like a raise this year...

Now the homebrew gods have smiled on me big time!

Company weekend moved to October.

Club comp postponed two weeks due to absence of half the committee.

Swap in place and I have my big pot as of today so should be an AG, assuming the first couple go well!
