Well my plastic test bottle has gone solid so at least I know it's carbing ok. Probably going to grab the bus down to Dublin on Friday for the day and drop the bottles in, in person.

Scan of Tags attached, Front and back.
Print side by side and fold over.

I imagine the Registration number is more important than the tags.

Legend!! I had lost these.. This came in to save the day

How exactly do we give the recipe? Ao we put on tags that can easily fall off and wrap a sheet of papaer around both of them or something. I cant find a link to this ingredients label we have to print?

I've lost the will to live looking at that  :(
Forgive them Beer Lord they know not what they are doing like using hot water from the tap.
Thats not homebrewing and breaks some of the most basic rules like sanitation, for posting that I should make you drink it, it'll probably do well  ;)

That beer will make a great laxative

All it's missing is; 'one of the teams decided to brew it in the sink'!

The team who added chocolate, looks like some got a dairy milk out of the vending machine, bunged it in the (more than likely filthy) microwave uncovered. Eugh!!
