Thank you to Tracey and Bruce for hosting & having us trapse all your brewery for the whole weekend, and letting us play with your awesome system, also for the food and just answering a million questions. That coolroom saved me a couple of times too ;) Gotta thank yob for helping organise the weekend too, plus the great bacon and egg breakfasts, hops, wicked aged RIS, etc. Huge thanks to Black and Tan for the recipe and brewing, that kegged u flecku was magnificent. Actually thanks to everyone for such an awesome weekend. Some freakin incredible beers were shared the Mildura boys Flanders red is magic, Stouty Stout veeery nice too, John's berlinners were a fave & AJ is inspirational as always from the mead to the sours & everything else in between, loved it! Feel like i should name everything i tried, but needless to say i loved them all!

Massive thanks to DJ Lethal, Nullnvoid & Micbrew for getting me & the circus tent up there & back too, champions!

Cheers!

Thanks everyone for a great weekend. Had a blast! Special mention to Tracey and Bruce, you guys are bloody hard workers!! Hope we didn't create too much more work for you.

Never thought I would be balls deep in a commercial mash tun, definitely another thing crossed off my bucket list.

Beers were great, had some beautiful Hefes, Belgian, :icon_vomit: thanks to everyone who let me sample them all!!! :D Honestly some great beers, great people.

Just wanted to reiterate all the previous comments and say what an awesome experience it was to brew with the Bandicoot crew. What wonderful hosts Tracey and Bruce were, incredibly hospitable and just genuine legends.

Will definitely be back up with the wife and son to say hello to them in the future!

As a case swap virgin I had no idea what to expect but was blown away by everyone's friendliness and their beers.
Cheers to everyone who gave me a sample of their beers and I hope the ones that got to try mine enjoyed them.
It was good to chat about brewing with a lot of you., even tho I probably didn't make any sense after a while.
Thanks to Tracy and Bruce for hosting and to all the people that helped put it together you have done a great job.
I'm already counting down to the next one! .
Whoever ended up with an extra mystery bottle in their swap beers, better drink it soon.

Cheers, Paul.
