Re: Judges and Stewards required

There will also need to be some volunteers to unpack, sort and label beers at Wiper and True in the week before the competition. Labels and crib sheets will be provided, to help remove the guess work.

I'd be interested in three if you can get hold of them. Every time I look at the number of bottles I need to wash I think about moving over to cornies. Now might be the right time to get round to it!
Cheers!

Meet the Brewer - Seren Brewing Co. at the Gravity Station

I'm doing a meet the brewer at the Gravity Station in Cardiff on 7 August. Not quite sure what time, but it would be good to see some of you if you can make it.

I'm also going to be doing an event at the Beer Emporium soon....

I'll be in Bristol at some point in the first two weeks of August, so can deliver.

£40 per keg - will probably need new seals. I may be able to supply seals, or you may need to sort your own.

Anyone want some kegs?
