2. Charst - Saison or something with Wyeast 3864 (Unibroue)

G'Day Charst,

You're not a yeast wrangler by any chance are you? I'd love to get my hands on a slant of that yeast.

Would be happy to swap a WY3711 slant or a few bottles of non-swap beer?

Mmmm... La Fin Du Monde, Maudite, Trois Pistoles... Oh how I miss thee.

Hi Shane, just got the smack pack through CB so its 6 months old, I usually Smack and Split into two vials and a Starter, happy to swap one.

 

[insane_rosenberg]

Thanks Charst, that would be awesome!

a belgian dark ale was brewed on saturday and was chugging away nicely by saturday night.

 

[Damn]

This will be my first social in the Homebrew world, but this is too close to home to miss. I got a Belgian Strong partial that will be ready (or very close to) by then but will try to do an IPA & APA BIAB to ensure I've got some acceptable ales by then. In fact maybe I'll do a mixed crate and that way I can bring some sampler's also so you can choose. Looking foward to it Whooooo Hoooo.

[breakbeer]

still trying to decide what to brew for the swap. Getting a few sacks of grain in the latest BB & have a freezer full of various hops.

Not sure if I should try something new & potentially stuff it up or play it safe & brew what I know I can do well

I'd love to have a go at a Midnight IPA, so that's on the cards

 

[manticle]

Brew both. use the one that works the best, drink the other. I always have a back up for case swaps.

 

[breakbeer]

bloody great idea!

 

[meathead]

I cant decide between Corona and Crown Lager (insert smilie face here)

 

[GrumpyPaul]

I am still trying to decide if my brews are up to swap meet standards. I am crash chilling a cherry ripe porter getting ready to bottle. For those participating would you be keen to get this in your swap?

Recipe posted here. http://aussiehomebrewer.com/topic/53895-true-south-cherry-porter-clone/

 

[manticle]

Jump in Barry.

Just put your best foot forward - you don't need to be an AIBA award winner to get in a swap.

 

[breakbeer]

I'd be keen to try a Cherry Ripe Porter for sure

 

[meathead]

Anything cold and wet is fine with me

 

[Yob]

Peeps keep this up and I may have to put my money where my mouth is and change my status to swapper… cherry porter sounds pretty good and am quite interested..

If I was to swap.. It will be hippy

 

[Edak]

Warm and wet sounds more appealing...

Count me in too.. I have been to Breakbeer (Glenn's) place and I think it would be a good location (though a fair f'ing drive for me).

[GrumpyPaul]

I will bottle it up in the next week - wait for it to carb up and give it a taste.

If it tastes good to me - I will be back here in a few weeks to see if there is space to add my name to the list.

Jump in Barry.

Barry is a nice name...just not mine

However as Joan Armatrading said...." I love when you call me names"

[breakbeer]

Glad I could talk you into coming along Edak

 

[insane_rosenberg]

I'm in the process of lining up a brew buddy for the swap, but he's not an AHB member.
What's the protocol?
