I have a repeat of last times effort as well; a 3.4% NZ mini pale ale.  Hopefully an improvement on its predecessor.

My US pale ale ended up a US dark ale, I hit 1.040  and with 1272 I am hoping it stays below 4%, will water it down if it doesn't.....  seems happy enough at the moment, there was enough darker malts and crystal that it should stop below 4%

If I can sort my carbonation issues I will have a bottle of my house Ordinary - How To Drain Your Flagon.

I might have said this already, but that is a great name.

Slight addition to the usual rules - you can label your beer(s) with a 'style'.  Just a couple of words to assist drinkers jumping between styles adjust their expectations.  I don't think the slight loss of anonymity will do any harm.

And...  Please bring jugs.  We will have plenty of tasting glasses but need a jug per entry.

Cheers

Sorry guys, won't be able to make this one & don't have anything that looks remotely like a <4% beer!

I'll pop the trophy in the courier tomorrow.

Cheers.

That's a shame. At least we'll have a chance to win though!

Don't go to the expense of a courier though if you don't want. Where do you work? There's bound to be someone nearby who can bring it along on Sunday.

Really sorry I couldn't make this, had to look after a sick child...   I am destined never to make a limbo event as have tried and failed twice now.

On the positive side my beer was well received at a BBQ last night and I will be rebrewing it for the next limbo.
