Sandgroper Christmas Case 2009

[Guest Lurker]

A bottle of oil will do fine Mr Goat, that knocks out a lot of the cost.

PS FES not RIS but dont let that slow you down

Page 9 and all this chatter, I thought this was the beginning of the next QLD Case Swap thread, it starts about now doesn't it ?

 

[Kai]

All I know is I have this strange urge to eat pickled eggs, deep fry things and create special photo opportunities with inebriated brewers.

 

[Guest Lurker]

6.5 kg, free range, ready to go.

 

[sinkas]

call me a crack head, but I am not surehow many bottle I need for the swap, is it 23, 24 or 25?

If I recall GL's annual address you need to grab one of each beer including your own so that would then equate to 25

From the first page, B=n, where n = number of participants and B = number of bottles. Currently n=25, with a possible drop out already, but that just means the cap'n gets more beer.

My beer is delivered and ready for drinking. So what about the rest of you ? We really have to beat these QLd upstarts.We have a Better venue better brewers so = better beer. Yes ? :beerbang:

To their advantage they do have a blow up sheep and bagpipes.

I guess the logical way to upstage them would be for someone to bring along a fleshlight, and a troop of morris dancers. Morris dancers are probably one of the few things I find more annoying than bloody bagpipes.

 

[Guest Lurker]

25 bottles to my place by 3 pm tomorrow. There may be drop outs, but if there is a free case available, we give it to Ant who has supplied us with beer at these events in the past. And if there are any left over after that I am sure I will think of something to do with them. Three cases are in my shed already. The label competition is looking to be hotly contested!

To their detriment they do have a blow up sheep and bagpipes.

Fixed !

Beers to Ant sounds like a damn good idea to :icon_cheers:

BTW - incase anyone is wondering, if you get an upside down label, that's a good thing. It helps with flocculation, or so I heard.

 

[stanko]

Any one needing a taxi tomorrow please pm me , will barter bottle a kilometer

No, you fool! That makes the yeast floc upwards.

 

[cubbie]

Well I am just about to bottle now! Working out the amount of malt I need will be interesting as I have no idea how hot the fridge got to when it stopped working, also Roy must have made a blue measuring out my grain becasue this beer is a shit load paler than the last of the same recipe I made.

Anyway see you all time time between 2 and 3...

You wont be the last. I hear a rumour AusDB is only up to dry hopping this morning and is planning to bottle at about 2:30.

 

[Goat]
