Yeh mate, why not?

Truthfully some of the boys don't even start brewing until the draws over. It sort of spreads the freebies out over a longer period. As long as everyone who enters is true to their word it's all sweet.

Is 2 x330ml bottles enough?

I believe that Earles rules state 'to about 750ml, yet I would believe that due to PET bottles that 650 - 750 will suffice.

So I would guess that yes, two 330ml bottles are good and legal tender. Although I don't know what options are available for postage to my winning address. We all have been using the 'wine boxes' in the past.

Hopefully I can just bubble wrap them and it should be fine. I just hope they don't turn into bombs or even worse, break!

Two 330ml is fine. I think one of the beers that I recieved in my Xmas lotto winnings was a coopers pet which I think is 500ml?

Perhaps I should update the rules to "a bottle or bottles to a volume of at least 500ml" - why put a top limit on it hey

Am bottling 2 brews this week so will be putting a few into PET with this in mind. First full volume AG happening this weekend (weather dependent) so will send a few of them along too.
Unless it turns out like utter arse then I'll just drink it in silence and consider it another lesson learnt

500ml PET bottles Earle, gee I thought they were at least 640ml ???

So all those who are yet to get in while the tuns still hot; here's the current entry list.

The Coopers bottles are 740ml. https://store.coopers.com.au/shop/product/DBC622/
I bought a box just for the lotto.
They are cheaper to post as you don't need a big wine box and they shouldn't break.

Can i have #29?

Also I think i owe Jello something from last time i visited the boards and posted in a lotto forum, let me know if this is correct, i havent been around for a long long time

Hey Rum, how are you dude?
Are you on the Coast now? That's not where you were before is it?
29 it is!

I'm in. Better get brewing, I suppose, because I reckon my run of bad luck will continue. Plus, I still owe a bottle from the last bottle but haven't got anything I'm happy to send.

It's all too good to give away, eh, Oliver?

I'm in the same boat, and moving house next weekend, so I probably won't have time for a brewday for a few weeks anyway

Thanks Sonny,

I'm now on the central coast, moved up from Wollongong area. Better.. more land and happier

Go on, where are you up there?
Maybe start a thread about your new found lands?
I'm interested as I grew up there, a much different place nowadays but. So friggan' busy!

And the winner is ....... barrelboy. Congrats, you just need to PM everyone in the draw and wait for the beers to start rolling in. Will have to have a look and see what I have to offer. Cheers

Congrats Barrelboy!
You're gunna'luv this.

I might even send you my amber ale your way, that's if it turns out good!

Well done on the win barrel
