Great, see you there. Not sure if I have anything ready since the last meet, I have a surplus to get through before I can start anything new.

Might bring a Razorback IPA kit or a Lightning Strike Summer Ale based on a Coopers Canadian Blonde kit http://store.coopers.com.au/recipes/index/view/id/82/ (http://store.coopers.com.au/recipes/index/view/id/82/) so as not to be empty handed.

Hmm, might manage this. Litre of bitter ale if I do, nowt, if I don't.

I've a sachet of Wheat Beer WB06 yeast that I'm not going to use if anyone wants it? Fresh, just ordered two by mistake, and it's just sitting in the fridge, looking at me, making me feel guilty about picking the other sachet over it.

I'm bringing along a new face, with a young cider for some feedback.

Good wee meet-up now.

I've taken away a few more ideas for a making a darker, more Breton-type cider using honey and/or golden syrup.  Not sure if I'd take it as far as the treacle idea for a batch, a couple of litres maybe.

Also, fair play to Julio for his beer of the night, the very quaffable chocolate stout.

Definitely had a good night and good too see new faces.As for Julio's Chocolate Stout I would quite happily paid for that over the counter.
Some nice varieties and styles and good tips to help me along.
Must say my head wasn't the bestest next day but was worth it.
I think we're agreed on December 7th though venue to be confirmed..

Had a good night too, topped off with that wonderful Stout. You'll have to share the recipe sometime ;-)

Did we say Tuesday 5th or Thursday 7th of December for the next one?  I seem to remember the 5th being mentioned. Either suits me.

Both were mentioned but I'm working days and finish on the 7th so shall be slightly late as I don't finish until 7.

Good meet, Julio's stout top for me as well. Can do either day in December too.

Guildhall Taphouse might be worth a go for a venue too. I know the manager if you want me to book it.

Certainly if you don't mind booking that would be great but the 7th would suit myself better but if not that's fine.

Either date is grand for me, so I'll go with either.
