We tapped these two beauties yesterday for your tasting pleasure! 🇧🇪🔥

If you couldn't make it down, get down now! We are leaving the legendary Gouden Carolus Imperial Dark (Whisky Infused) and Gounden Carolus Classic on tap today (Friday) for one last day of side by side tasting.

Savour it while you can, because tomorrow we roll out the steins, and go full classic Oktoberfest mode down the lane!

THE FOOD

This Saturday we are kicking off our traditional Oktoberfest, and along with heavy-hitting Bavarian brews, the kitchen is dishing up proper authentic German feast mode! 🇩🇪🥩

This year the kitchen is making Grilled Rouladen. Thinly sliced meat rolled around smoky bacon, tangy mustard, pickles, and onion, seared over the grill for a deep smoky char before being slow-braised to fork-tender perfection. 🔥

It’s the ultimate comfort plate to wash down with a massive stein of authentic Festbier!🍻

Better late than never! Gouden Carolus Whisky Infused and Gouden Carolus Classic were supposed to be a part of Belgian Beer Week, but they literally missed the boat.

The ship has finally docked, the kegs are chilling in our cold room, and we are giving these two Belgian powerhouses the dedicated showcase they deserve on Thursday, September 17.

ON THE BOARD:
🍺 Gouden Carolus Classic: The legendary dark ale, rich with warm caramel, dark fruit, and centuries of Belgian tradition.
🥃 Gouden Carolus Whisky Infused: The classic dark ale infused with Gouden Carolus Single Malt whisky. Rich, powerful, smooth, and dangerously drinkable.

The Reckless Brewing Pit-Crew is pulling into Saccharomyces for an epic birthday pit-stop. This Saturday (September 12) we are celebrating 7 years of Reckless Brewing with a massive 16-tap takeover, custom birthday beer-cocktails, and proper racetrack shenanigans!⁠

The Reckless crew is flying up with their official race suits and we are turning the afternoon into a high-octane birthday celebration. The Wheel of Wonder is making a return with some epic beer tray (like a meat tray but with some tinnies) give aways. We cannot wait!

Our Bone Marrow & Brisket Rillettes have become somewhat of a crowd favourite. Slow cooked brisket with onion and bone marrow served in the bone with toasted bread is perfect for sharing, but we understand if you want it all for yourself.

Heavy-hitting liquid incoming down the lane! 🥃

On Thursday, September 17, we are tapping a true titan of the Belgian beer world: Gouden Carolus Imperial Dark (Whisky Infused).

To create this absolute masterpiece, Het Anker infuse their legendary Cuvée van de Keizer Dark with their own single malt Gouden Carolus Whisky. The result? A rich, velvety dark ale bursting with warm oak vanilla, dark chocolate, ripe plums, and a smooth, gentle whisky glow.

Clocking in at an impressive 11.7% ABV, this is pure liquid luxury in a glass and a absolute rarity on tap in Australia.

We’re a bit slow on the IPA Day recap, but the results are officially in: Seven Mile WCIPA has taken out the crown yet again! 👑🦁

Turns out your palates are sharp as tack with pretty much everyone who played correctly identified the 7 Mile tap and dutifully voted it their top Westie. Unstoppable. 💚

As for the rest of the board:

Red IPAs: Archer took out top spot with a cracking red drop! 🧡

Hazy IPAs: Range Dreams went back-to-back, taking the title for the second year running! 💛

Perfect time for an arvy tipple. See you soon!
