Oxford Brewers - Summer 2012 "Taste and Swap" Meet

Post by coatesg » Sun Apr 29, 2012 9:04 pm

Every year, the Oxford Brewers Group hold a "Taste and Swap" event - this year it will take place on the weekend of the 16th – 17th June (actual day to be confirmed).

The theme this year is "Brewing Better Beer with Kits" - the aim being to get even the most hardened all-grain brewer (along with current kit brewers!) to have a go at brewing beer from a kit and making it as good as possible. Apply your knowledge to improve the kits to try and make the beer as good as possible from a kit base - changing yeast, using malt extract instead of sugar, fermentation control, etc.

Additionally, along with your kit beer, attendees are encouraged to bring along some of your beer that you would like to either taste on the day for feedback, or take part in a bottle swap. Bring a bottle, take a bottle is the basic plan. There will also be an opportunity to swap ingredients or home brewing equipment. If you have some malt or hops that you would like to possibly swap and try something different bring them along. Same goes for any unused or unwanted home brewing equipment.
