    Hi Adrian, most of my brews are going towards getting my draft going but I could prob do a few bottles. Just tested first draft, way too much pressure initially and a bit yeasty as I had to pitch more when it stuck at 1020 - will let you know how it progresses

    roger that.. I reckon us bay boys should set a date and brew for it... maybe a bbq and a few beers as the swap takes place? maybe early February????

    I will be back in Europe mid Dec until end of Jan, so 11, 12,13, of Feb would be good for me. Meanwhile when are you free for a beer??

  • Adrian Tayler

    I am always free for a beer mate... just finished your "shipwrecked" ale... nice drop.. shall we loosely say end of feb for a case swap and see if anyone else is keen?

    Crowded House on Sat Feb 27th which leaves the Sun - works well for me as its my weekend off. Checked my brew log on the draft, reckon it needs more time because of the extra yeast I had to put in. 10 more days to wait-bugger!!

    Major cock up with the 'case swap' brew, did not add the irish moss and after 7 weeks it is still cloudy. It will taste good, will just have to pretend its a wheat beer!! Apart from that I am still on.

    I am in at this stage guys.  Do we have a venue or just park up by the skate bowl?  Sorry but my place is out .......

  • Adrian Tayler

    the bowl sounds good.. we can sell our brews to the school kids....

     

    My place might be a go.. lets set a date and get brewing and decide on the finer details later??

    Hi Adrian,

    been a while, my laptop crashed a few months ago and i've just got a new one so I haven't been online for a while. worst thing was I lost my recipes just after I started BIAB (with some success!). anyway I'll keep an eye out on RealBeer for any other meets in HB. cheers

    There is some good news and some bad news in your message mate but great work... I am always keen to hook for a beer and even more keen on a swap of some sort.. there seems to be a few of us in the bay now so it shouldnt be hard to rally up a case swap.. email me if you are keen so we can get some numbers together. secure@garytayler.co.nz

     

    Cheers
