Not within walking distance, but the plans (yet to be announced and finalised) are for bring and eat BBQ breakfasts and a taxi run/delivery service for Chippy, Chinese and Indian Take aways. I'm working on agreeing set meals and prices at the moment :thumb: the BBQ will of course be available at all times for whoever to cook on when they want. (Gas to make it easy)

Cheers Wez lets hope its not raining for the BBQ

We are homebrewers, we will find a way. :thumb:

 

[Virgilartois]

I'll be there. I'd like to try and enter a beer for judging if I can get all my kit together in time. Not expecting to win any awards but I'd definitely like the constructive criticism.

Agree, although people that drink my beer always say its good I`m sure people will say that anyway, especially as its free. Looking forward to the judgement of our peers.

I think I mentioned before that I have a party gazebo that is 6 meters long and 3 wide and fully waterproof that can be used BUT some one with a large car or van needs to pick it up and return it as it wont fit on the back of my bike

 

[Muddydisco]

If Wez want's it Growler, I'll offer to collect it at some point and deliver

 

[Chelstonbrewery]

Why has the Spring think survey stopped? I would have thought it very important to have some idea of how many is coming and especially number of beer entries.

 

[Muddydisco]

All the polls have a time limit pre set on them so it was going to close no matter what.

 

[tubby_shaw]

As MD rightly said all polls can be set with a time limit. I set it to close a couple of months before the event as it's too late to do much re organising now :thumb:
We will know before the event how many beer entries there are going to be as they all have to be registered before the event.
I hope this clarifies things.

Yes we could use that, what are the exact dimension so that I can sort it with the brewery :thumb:

 

[dennisking]

Just a thought, but would the brewery consider selling sacks of malt etc. to us. They can probably make a bit on each sack and it would still be a bit cheaper for us all.

 

[Jon474]

I'm coming along. Not sure I can get there until the Saturday though. Will I have missed it all by then?

I'm entering three beers in the competition: a session beer in the "up to 1.040" class and two in the Church End Brewery class. I'm looking at three Church End Brewery possibles as I type this...

[Wez]

Friday is just a meet up and a bit of a social, the comp and tour is on the Saturday

Glad to see so much interest!

Due to a rather upsetting family matter I have not been on the forum much but please PM me any questions you have and I will try to answer them as quickly as I can.

 

[Swazi]

Yay, this looks awesome. I'm going to try and make it :thumb:

 

[Wez]
