Enjoy tonight lads.. I'm away this eve unfortunately..

[Will_D]

A great night was had by all.

Its very nice to welcome guests to our meet, thanks for comming John and Ronnan.

Maters discussed:

1. Next Barrel fill:
    We agreed to give this one more week to see who will committ to the brew.
    Once we have enough we can sort the recipe and take it from there. So please update the cask thread

2. Hop packing:
    We need to order bags for this. Will will sort that out. Jacob gave Will his packer.
    When the bags are here we will set the date and venue. Prob. The Rugby Club.
    I will bring a tarpaulin as leaf hops are not as clean as pellets - and look at the mess we had with those.
   What shall we do with the spare free bale?

3. Next Brewday:
    Will will discuss with Boro over a few lunchtime pints. May take several visits tho'!

4. Summer beer comp:
    We need to get Rossa to agree a date so we can work backwards.
    I have already updated his thread but no word yet.

5. Our ICBINAL Comp in August:
    This is now registered with BJCP, formal announcement made. I will try and get the registration software ready.

6. A note for your diaries:
    Friday June 13th at James'. If you can come/help/donate please PM him

7. AOB:

There being no further business the meeting then switched to beer tasting mode!

Again a fantastic selection of beers and ciders were presented and enjoyed.

From light summer beers, fruit ciders, IPAs, Ales, Saissons, Porters and Stout all the way to the Imperial IPAs and Stouts.

A special mention for "Nigel the Recipe" DIPA beer. Fantastic was the concensus.


BTW: TCF=115

The extra hops could be packaged up and put up for sale. Could be a nice little earner for the NCB bank account.

What variety is it again?
