SE QLD Xmas-in-July 2015

[Ciderman]

Nah mate, that was Meno turning up at 5. I have to start work at 5, so I will turn up about a qtr. to 2, say g'day, drop my beers off, do the keg deal with Earle, have a couple beers, and toddle off. If anyone is still going at 3pm on Sunday, I finish work at 2pm so can drop through :lol: I'll be dropping off a few Wild Ryed Saisons courtesy of our good friend meno as well, I have a coupl;e left of a batch he generously donated to yours truly so figured it'd be worth sharing 'em.

Good to see you took my suggestion of a coffee beer. Look forward to catching up, haven't forgotton the imperial stout that I owe you. I'll bring a few along so I can contribute to the Sunday morning headaches.

 

[Liam_snorkel]

I'll be bringing a keg of a beer I brewed to test out Gladfields shepherds delight malt, and a growler of a brett plum sour. And some commercial beers.

 

[angus_grant]

Done and done. Just need to arrange a drop off to Master Jäpps.

5 tasters for me, one of which is going fridge tonight for tomorrow night.

To quote The Crowdies, "You better be there 't two" so I can try it.

I'm planning on doing a rejig of the cream ale I did before but substitute as many grains as I can with the Gladfield.

Yeah, thanks for the prompt mate. I'm looking forward to trying that one of yours also. If I've had to head off before you get there, just leave it in my swap crates (three long wooden carry handled wood crates).

 

[angus_grant]

Dang, going to be missing out on some good beers on the night.
Have fun everyone!

 

[winkle]

We'll hammer BT with "Hi Angus" threads so you can feel left out mate

I shall bring a dubbel with all gladfields then mate. Pilsner, redback and shepherd's delight. Also the usual barrel aged lambic bottles .

 

[lukiferj]

Super keen to try the redback malt too

I was expecting nothing less. :super:

 

[Beersuit]

Perry would it be cool if I drop my beers off in the morning around 10ish?

 

[winkle]

No problemo Beersuit.

If anyone wants it - there is a stand-alone beer tap on the bar that you can use (just bring a bag of ice), it'll save bringing a party keg setup if you're getting a lift.

 

[Liam_snorkel]

Going to have the super rugby final on the telly Perry?

I'll take you up on your offer Perry, getting a drop off by a mate so it saves me dragging my dodgy Styrofoam box around. You have have bucket or should I bring one along?

Brett Plum Sour? Oh hell yes!

I've just got a mish-mash of my latest brews in an esky being couriered in by HWall95. As for the Wild Rye Saison I brewed that Mad Pierre is bringing... I don't know if 'donating' is the right term - it was more like 'off-loading' (That guy is pretty crazy)

We should have a beer betting pool. The owner of the first keg emptied wins...

We should be able to sort out the bucket and gas.

Can be arranged Liam!

Just had a taste of the black IPA I'll be bringing tomorrow to share around, not a bad drop. Will also be bringing snacks and whatnot

 

[Radshoes]

ok then
sooooooooooooooooooooooooo

If you get a red 21 you got the last of the mocha porter - It must have been ok because my FIL had been hitting it a lot more than I thought.

If you have a green 21 it is a fairly basic APA. Bravo, Colombus, Chinook and either keg hopped with warrior or mosaic - my record keeping isn't that great!

I will be picking up some sort of meats from the markets tomorrow for snacks and I am not sure what beer I will be bringing because I have not really been brewing too much lately due to time constraints.
