Kit was EUR80(USD100) + 2 slabs of heino or similar so a token contribution of a fiver per interested party.

Expression of Interest here...

would love to take part but not sure i'd be able to make it to cork...perhaps if it were a saturday and someone was happy to put me up!

Have done this twice now, it's very good, although some of them are so bad you'd have to really f*ck up to get them in your beer.

First time each vial was in a litre of beer and I didn't get a lot of them as the beer over powered the off flavour. Second time each vial was in about 750ml which worked perfectly.

Did this over a year ago and dare I say it, I thought Heino has too much flavour. An even weaker tasting beer like Coors/Bud/Canadian would probably work better.

Thanks for the feedback lads.
@Stephanos, Are you up North?
You could be accommodated.
Put your name down anyway, this is an expression of interest.

DHL just paid a visit again looking for duty, the Bastids.
Not sure what the score is, I have the goods, so I'm in a strong position for bargaining.

what kind of duty? Just say they're scientific samples, should be no duty payable.

Yeah, I'd be coming down from cookstown (probably via Dublin)
