Well its the first of August today and we have two comps this month to win and prove we are the best!
Jacobs win in the Darkside competiion adds another gold to our CV.

Agenda:

1. Please bring your entries for BOTH comps if possible on the 12th. Registration closes on the 14th and beers will be collected from me on the 18th or so.

Also who is travelling to Bray on the 23rd for the judging and who wants to judge? I remeber someone wanted to try out BJCP standard judging.

2. We may have some info re the JDW takeover and would they be amenable to us still meeting there. Also the time frame involved - as in they may close the Boro for a refurb. Mark & Jason have agreed to discuss with them

3. Quadraphenia progress: Its a big beer and we are getting there!. Maybe a small sample ot two?
     Is it too early to arrange a fill date?

4. Bru Brewery tour: This is still undersubscribed - we can talk about it!


So as to the beers and the list:

1. Will_D: Maybe a cider!

The Ploughmans pub in Kinsealy are looking to start a craft beer club. I told them some of us might be interested. It might be a possible venue for us too..

Might be a bit late but I should be along. I'll have to see what I have to bring along because it seen slow brewing lately.
Have a Vienna lager on tap at the moment so might bring that along if its still around.  ;)

We really need to decide on a timeline for empty and refill of the barrel.
I have a spare carb cap that I'd be happy to donate to the club for the purpose of tastings of the barrel.
