Which brew?

 

[Yob]

Sorry man, thought it was you that dropped out of the 11 slot.. Must be sleep deprivation or summit… nuthin to see here, move along

 

[Adam Howard]

It was me Yob. Went to ferment a cube of Munich Dunkel today and noticed it swollen with a sticky trickle of wort from the cap to the base and a fair bit of mould growth in and around the cap. The wort itself smelt alright but I wasn't going to chance it. Don't have anything else to offer and I'm on a self imposed brewing hiatus at the moment.

 

[Yob]

Damn I got a good swmbo…

Brewing something out of the regular for me for the swap.. Bit weird, I should brew somethin I know is a great beer… anyway

Will be something akin to an ESB but not too sure how it would fit in style guidelines…

40ish ibu, marris otter, Munich, wheat, touch of choc, challenger/EKG/Fuggles

No real recipe research, brewed by thumb… as is mostly my way

I made a starter for the 1318 with 1.5lt of the swap wort on Sunday, this morning it's near climbing out of the 2lt flask... :beer:

 

[micbrew]

ah gday there

well i would like to attend and swap beer ...but i only use stubbies at this stage
so i could provide 48 stubies would this suffice ............. same qty obviously

 

[Edak]

As Yob said earlier: What are we brewing?

Let's start a list and people can add styles and add votes.

1. Stout (dry, milk, imperial......??)
2. Robust porter
3. Altbier
4. Doppelbock (manticle)
5. Big Belgian
6. German or Czech lager of sorts
7. APA/AIPA (been done 8 million times)
8. Wee Heavy

Sorry if I offended anyone by offering up an AIPA, perhaps I should withdraw?

 

[Yob]

No… if I didn't have that yeast I'd be offering same

 

[micbrew]

ahhh do i take this as a no ... as i havent had a response

i put my brew in stubbies .... is this acceptable in a beer swap

bottles versus stubbies ...or is this sacralidge ...

or suppose they can consumed by the masses if required and up to spec on the day

 

[Yob]

As a guess, I'd say that worse things have happened as swap beers, hay I'm not running this one though..

The host will add a comment here at some point.

Edit: I'd prefer 2 stubbies than one exploding longneck!!

 

[manticle]

Sorry if I offended anyone by offering up an AIPA, perhaps I should withdraw?

Shut up and brew mr sensitive.

We'll all love it.

@micbrew - definitely join in. Longnecks aren't hard to come by and it saves you some effort with bottling.

 

[meathead]

He'll have 23 by 28th July (insert sarcastic emoticon here)

 

[breakbeer]

[Yob]

are all the peeps voting on what is being brewed in for a cube? coz if thats the case we had better start sorting some large bits of equipment :lol:

Whats the hosts system? if we can work out how many cubes we need we can work that bacwards to system requirements and back further to who can bring what..
