So, went to dry hop tonight. Had 16g Challenger, 16g Bramling Cross and 16g Goldings (essentially something just under 3g/L). Filled my hop sock... but was a bottomless hop sock, so ended up dry-hopping the concrete. D'oh!

So after knotting the sock I instead went with an equal mix of Challenger, Williamette and Goldings. That should be nice actually. And about 2g/L total. Ah well.

Arse feck feck.

Looks like my sister has now scheduled her going away party on the 4th :-(

So I'll be swapping but not attending the day. Stupid family!!

 

[lukiferj]

Best news I've had all week! Can take and pick up your beers if you like.

 

[angus_grant]

Sweet, thanks Lukifer.
I've been waiting for something to pop up and take the swap date. :-(

I'm hoping so because those beers sound amazing and I want in!

 

[Newy]

Yeah, sounds like a tough afternoon, sitting around sampling fine brews!!

Afternoon, evening, breakfast. I'm hoping to make it to breakfast at one eventually.

 

[Newy]

It's been quite some time since I've seen the sun come up over the rim of a glass -_-

I stayed up 'till 11.30 watching netfilx friday night...

Still recovering

 

[earle]

What time do you think it might kick off Perry? Starting to think about transport down and home again.

Swap beer update: Brewed the hoppy hefe the weekend before last. Dry hopped this weekend just gone. Smells great.

 

[winkle]

2pm kickoff earle (bit later if I have to work in the morning), I'll send out details in a week or so. Newcomers are welcome - bring keg/samples of your best, or some quality craft to share.

Excellent, thanks Winkle. I shall bring a keg of my best.

I added a forum old boy to the attendance list too. :beerbang:

 

[Lowlyf]

Where is this held?

 

[seehuusen]

At Winkle's place in Everton park mate

Got my swap beer brewed and in the fermenter this arvo. It's nice and golden in colour, good kick of hops. Gonna hit around the 6% abv, looking forward to this one

 

[Adr_0]

So when we bottle, we just chuck our respective number on the top?

 

[angus_grant]

Yep, you would number all your bottles 20.
I'll number all mine 11.

 

[winkle]

If Sqyre is coming, I'm gunna hide that Kelis track

 

[Newy]

Ha, probably a good call

 

[seehuusen]

Swap beer is down to 1.012 (1.008 anticipated FG), so I whacked 2.5g/l of dry hop into the fermenter (citra & summer combination), smells great!!

Should be just about ready to drink at the swap, cutting it fine though can't wait!

Anyone else think Angus needs to not only drop off his swap beer but a mega batch of those meatballs??
