Ps, sorry for the hassle
No problem at all! Just let me know so I can change the records. I'm pairing up swappers with similar beers, where possible, then randomly within that, so I will just shuffle things around slightly.
Ok sorry for the delay, it's gonna be an American wheat beer rather than the IPA. It's called Paddy's Irish American Wheat :thumb:
Thanks, Stevie.

DING DING!
Last orders for the Summer Bottle Swap 2013 beer entries :!:
You'll still have two weeks to get your brew posted to a fellow swapper (deadline 14th July for that) if you register today, but we'll have to call time on new entries at midnight tonight, so we can get pairing people up and send out the details.
Keep checking back here for a link to a new 'feedback thread' when it opens in a week or two's time and please, please, DO leave some feedback for the person who so lovingly prepared your tipple, quoting their 'ticket number' that came with it, when the time comes - pics and all!

OK
We've got 29 entries for the beer swap! Well done everyone :
I'd be very happy to accept one more entry to even up the pairs - even a second bottle of the same brew from an existing swapper (a couple of others have done this)... otherwise swap-admin may be forced to inflict another bottle of poison on some unsuspecting participant themselves!
Pairs are nearly sorted now. Just a lot of copying and pasting of addresses into emails to start, so please bear with me over the next day or two. If you don't get your email by Thursday night (4th) then please get in touch at the usual [email protected] address.

Entries are now closed for the beer summerswap (unless someone wants to sneak one in quick to even the numbers up!!)
Id like to thank everyone who has joined in and i look forward to sampling one of your beers shortly and inflicting one of mine on one of you.
29 is a great start (30 would be better :whistle: ) for the beer swap and gives us a really strong starting point for the next swap, which following some feedback/consultation from all you swappers will be either autumn or christmas.
I will add a tasting notes thread which hopefully the mods will make a sticky as they have with this one; for all of your feedback - over the next few days in antisipation.
Big man hugs to morethanworts for his feverish hard work.
Cheers :

He means 'put me down for an second one', Calum - but I can see why it sounded funny!
Anthony - I will accept your kind offer. A second one of the same brew?
Maybe in the next swap we should have a second bottle for every entry sent to Bottleswap HQ, just for moderation purposes, obviously :whistle: :drunk:

Yeah, after I stopped chuckling I figured that's maybe what was meant...
I still find it funny though... :thumb:

Right, I think that's everyone emailed now for beer entries in the Bottleswap!
If you haven't received an email with a ticket number and a name and address then please let me know.
It's over to you guys... :

Brewing without a hat
How long should we let the bottles stand for to let the sediment settle? Will putting them in the fridge help even if the serving temperature is different?
