P.S. Sorry if there is already a thread for this, I looked hard but could not find.
There is now. Here we go again.
Sandgroper Christmas Case 2006.
The rules.
1) Let n be the number of participants. You supply (n-1) longnecks of beer. This reduced from the original 2(n-1) due to the high number of participants this year.
2) A longneck can be plastic or glass, it contains between 500 and 800 ml of beer, 750 ml is best but anywhere in the range is OK.
3) You make the absolute best beer you can at your current level of brewing, for the pleasure of your brewing brethren.
4) All beers must be labelled.
5) We dont care what you are going to make, dont post your beer style to this thread, we dont get hung up on that sort of thing.
6) Once you commit, there is NO BACKING OUT. One year, one participant ended up buying commercial beer to meet his case obligations. We didnt argue, and we didnt let him off!
7) If bottle conditioning, remember, these beers are in OTHER PEOPLES HOUSES. We would rather drink undercarbonated beer than clean your beer off our ceiling.
8) The case swap will happen on 16 December, at my place in Bayswater. You either get the beers there before, or arrive on the day. We do the swap and you go away with a case of finely crafted beers for Christmas drinking.
9) Post your participation in this thread. Once we get an idea of numbers we will set a close off date. Ash in Perth, your presence is required, as is your robust porter.
10) No proxy entries, post personally or miss out.
11) Maximum value of n = 25
