[markymoo]

sorry if i have caused any dramas, but good to see you were able to fill my spot.
Mark

 

[drew9242]

Just booked me accommodation and all is set for a big day. Food is sounding good, it might get hard for me to help out in bringing food. I'll just have to bring some cash. I hope to bring a keg, but things are getting really hectic at the moment so I'll see how I go.

Ciro - SWMBO has subtly reminded me that 8 Dec is one of the mini-Ant's birthdays, so I will be there at some time with beer, but Murphy being Murphy, I can guarantee the party will coincide with case swap time. I don't want to offend the beer gods with bringing bottles late, so I'll just bring a keg along and say hi.

No dramas, I'll be hitting up the brewing gods for a day off next week and putting down a double batch to cover the swap and the west aussie brew crew swap. Everyone will just need to save my bottle till the end of the case so it has the green edge worn off.

 

[amiddler]

Just finished bottling my Vienna for the case swap. Unfortunately I will not be attending due to work but my beers will arrive care of Triple "B" Brewing. Out of the fermenter it is one of the best beers I have made and definitely my best attempt at this recipe. My Dad taste tests almost all of my beers and he wants me to put this on tap and send something else.

Anyone else going to put trendy labels on there beers? I am just designing mine now.

Drewy

 

[Online Brewing Supplies]

A nice label explaining the beer would be great, mine will be a postal sticker with scribble :lol:
Just had a few beers and a Tuna burger on the beach in Vietnam, going out later to search for a cheap beer joint with pizza.

You poor thing, having to eat dolphin burgers.
Cheap beer and pizza, sounds like my place on a Friday night.

Drew

 

[Online Brewing Supplies]

Only found more beer and shrimp the size of crays !
I will keep trying as the beer is pouring out of my skin as fast as I drink it.
Nev

 

[amiddler]

Finished adding labels to my addition to the case swap. Nothing fancy and on paper labels so they soak off the bottles easily.




Even did a bigger label so people know which box is mine.




Just so I have things correct, I am supplying 24x 750ml bottles of beer? I see the brewers names changing and want to make sure no one misses out on a spectacular beer.
Unfortunately I wont be attending but I have put trust in Badabing Brewing to get my share home safe and sound.

 

[jyo]

My way of thinking is that we bring 24 for the swappers and an extra beer to give an extra carton to the magnificent, talented and slightly attractive (when looking through beers goggles in a dimly-lit room) host.

 

[Spoonta]

I was thinking the same thing

 

[keifer33]

Will have 24 bottles exactly all going well when I finally get a chance to bottle it tonight...hopefully...

 

[Online Brewing Supplies]

Yep thats right :lol:
Nev

 

[amiddler]

That 25 beers to the carton idea is awesome. Will slip an extra one in for you Nev.

 

[krausenhaus]

I'm going to have to use my CPBF for my lot, which I've never used before.

Good thing I made a double batch because I envisage losing 10 bottles to foam while I work it out.

 

[drew9242]

Oh crap you reminded me that I should get me labels sorted. Time just keeps disappearing at present. Are we all sorted for beer and food on the day?

 

[FNQ Bunyip]

Surely this is just a ploy to get a bigger case swap thread than the Qlders.

Well it worked

Food is in the planning stage, at this stage looks like legs of lamb done on the spit with rolls and gravy as the main fare. Turkish breads with dips etc as fill foods.
I think a few people are considering bringing Crays and fish or what ever they can catch. All are welcome to bring something to share, just let me know in advance and mention it here.
Nev

 

[drew9242]

Cool sounds good. I can take some campfire wood if you need? And can bring along some cheese and crackers?

No wood needed as the spit is gas
Thanks for the food option :icon_drool2:
Drew9242---- Cheese and cracker.
Nev------------Turkish bread and dips.

 

[drew9242]

I spose you guys don't need fires to keep you warm.

 

[Bizier]

My saison has been bloody cursed. First one fermenter leaked, then another, so I had to combine them. I still have one more up my sleeve though.

Sure you dint drink it ?

 

[Bizier]

Sure you dint drink it ?

Seriously, I have a soured one that leaked 5L onto floor through thread and I have a non-soured one which was stacked and the fermenter below gave in, and it dropped to the ground, perfectly vertical, though opened the tap slightly on the way down and all bar 5L leaked through the floorboards, so they were combined. It was a bitch of a brew too with gummy adjuncts, so I am pissed, lucky I did a triple batch.

 

[Online Brewing Supplies]

Some thing that needs be addressed BEER GLASSES :
You either bring your own or I will get some plastic jobbies ?
I think plastic.
Nev

 

[drew9242]

I prefer the blown glass jobbies. But It would be handy to have plastic, due to the fact that I may forget. Which is not that likely, I usually have a pint in the car for unforeseen reasons.
