Cheers guys.

'named after the tune......??????' - indeed (and what a few bottles will do to your brain :-) )

'Where'd you get the big crown capper from?' - Brewer's Coop - he has a replacement bell for the bench capper he's selling. This is actually a standard size cap though - Old Numbskull from Alesmith IIRC.

Nice one Denim!!! Looks like something you'd see on the shelf at a fancy beer shop.

Probably a silly question but is it bottle conditioned or barbed & bottled from the keg?

Cheers again guys.

Bottle conditioned mate. Was thinking of bottling from the keg but was worried about oxidation - especially since it'll be in the cellar for a while. I made a starter of 1056 for another beer an kept some yeast back to add to the bottling bucket, thought the original yeasties may be a little tired (if there were enough left).
