Qld Xmas Swap

I hope that someone weakens and organises the Bulk Buy before this happens <_<
(I sure hope its not me :unsure: )

Still unsure which beer to bring - Mild?

A mild would be perfect Winkle. I just made one but detecting a little sharp sourness in it. May have to scoff it before it gets any worse.

I'll be brewing a series of big beers over the next week(s);

An Imperial Belgian Chocolate Wheat Stout 10%ABV
Tootin' Saison 9% ABV (a 'super saison' with rye)
and Hogshead d'Noel 9% ABV (a biere de Noel)

If one of them is anywhere near ready it'll be the swap beer, otherwise I'll be brewing another batch of Galactic Dark Matter (sort of a Black APA that was on tap at last swap) that can be bottled rather than kegged.
As usual time is getting away from me for brewing but at least the swap approaches
Get onboard if you're not already, it should be a ripper.
(let me know if you need a hand with anything Daz)

Well Im out :angry:


Wife decides she is having combined birthday party that weekend for her and a friend.... FFS isnt a trip to the US enough?

Oh well, I would have been pulling out of the swap part anyway, health and other things have put me so far behind now I haven't got the brewery operational and it's starting to really piss me off *** insert tantrum here***

 

[Kingbrownbrewing]

Is there any way I can get in on this thing?

Is there enough time if I brew something soon?

Can someone give details of what the deal is (Date, Location, what I need to bring etc)?

Would love to contribute something.

Yes you can.
There is often a few beers with "drink after **/**/**" (probably mine for example)

King Brown Brewing (aka my brother) brought this great event to my attention. Is there any spots left for myself to attend and swap a case of beer.

I intend to brew up a bourbon-soaked peach Dunkelweiss courtesy of the Liver Shank Ambrosiares on the weekend.

Let me know what I need to do other than bring myself a case of beer to swap and some camping gear, would love to come if there are any spots left.

Cheers,
Joey

A Couple of questions though:

1. will there be an oven for me to heat up the bake?
2. Will there be keg dispensing facilities or should I bring a portable solution?

cheers boys, cant wait!!!

 

[NickB]

Dan - Usually a stand-alone keg setup is recommended, although you may be able to tap off someone else's gas if needed. Most of us only have basic setups, buckets and ice etc. Would have to check with Daz re: oven facilities etc. I'll likely do my Stout Chilli Con Carne again, stand alone in a slow cooker.

Joey - add your name and beer to the list posted, and if you're bringing food and a keg etc, add that toward the bottom. Camping gear/swags recommended. Usually bring a glass as well, maybe a stool/chair depending on what Daz has available. Neurofen and Berocca also recommended for the next morning....


Cheers

Swap beers are the same number of bottles as people in the swap, you get one of your own back (it makes it easy for the organiser). Put the swap number on the lid somehow. Use PET bottles, lables if you feel like it. Add a 'drink-after **/**/** comment' if needed to the swap beer list.
Tasall.
I may have to copy Campbells bucket and stick set-up since the unfortunate demise of the dalek on the brewday evening .

 

[NickB]

WHAT???!?!?!? The Dalek has been Exterminated???? How'd that happen???

 

[Kingbrownbrewing]

Any chance I can bottle in glass with labels (pints)?

I like to make it look professional, even if the beer isnt.....

 

[winkle]

WHAT???!?!?!? The Dalek has been Exterminated???? How'd that happen???

errr, pissed- let go when chucking the water out

We usually specify PET to avoid a repeat of flying shrapnel at a previous swap h34r:
(I believe Sqyres dog wore a bottle cap up the date or was that Incider)
