Clearly the best of the beers I tasted tonight. Crisp spicy aroma, with notes of hop. Balanced flavour, Balanced finish. I bought a grauw to take home. Well worth seeking out while it is there.

A rather unmemorable beer considering the effort put into it. Dark brown with a slight malt aroma. Almost no flavour, just a slight but pleasant sweetness. No finish

Draught. The problem is all you can taste is the rooibos tea. I like rooibos but a beer should not taste like a tea. Reddish amber with thick white head. Balanced aroma. Flavour is rooibos tea, no more. A bit of hop in the finish.

Really called a dark saison, but it’s not all that dark. Draught pour with a thick white head. Spicy aroma. Medium body for such a strong beer. Spice and malt in the flavour. Spicy finish.

Called Old Woody by the restaurant. Can we get this changed to that. Barrel aged and with the character of the barrel in the aroma. Full bodied with a minor alcohol note. Malty note.

Draught. Pours black with thick white head; Light soapy aroma. Full hop flavour with some roasty notes. Perhaps the crowd roaring songs helped. Nice hop finish.

Draught. The whole was greater than the sum of it’s parts. Hop aroma. Balanced flavour, with a lot of lemon. Lemon in the finish, rather like lemon custard. BTW. I love lemon custard.
