New year means new beers at Tap’d. This year our major focus at Tap’d is bringing you more tasty beers from here in Queensland, we want to support the craft beer producers of this great state.
We’ve had a good look around and found plenty of new breweries from Queensland to showcase and the following beers are just the start of our new focus at Tap’d.
One of the latest additions to our taps comes all the way from Cairns and our new friends at Hemingway’s Brewery. Mr Wong’s Hefeweizen is a traditionally styled Hefeweizen with prominent clove and banana aroma, medium body, low bitterness and tart, spritzy character from increased carbonation. This a refreshing summer beer that’s not overpowering and one that keeps you coming back for more.
Another new addition to our extensive tap list comes from Revel Brewing in Bulimba. An Engineered Haze Strong Hazy Pale Ale. Named after the locale of the Northbridge Brewing Co, our New England inspired pale ale returns. This pale ale pours a thick golden haze with pineapple, passionfruit, orange and mango on the nose. A silky mouthfeel leads to a surprisingly dry finish, with just enough bitterness to let you know you’re still drinking beer.
And my favourite beer so far for this year is from our pals at Currumbin Valley Brewing with
their Strawberry Bubblegum Sour. Inspired by their 2019 Great Australasian Beer SpecTAPular (GABS) People’s Choice Grape Bubblegum sour, Currumbin Valley decided to release a strawberry take on this sour ale. This is a puckering sour beer inspired by Strawberry flavoured Hubba Bubba bubblegum. The brewers have absolutely nailed the strawberry bubblegum flavour with just enough tartness to refresh the palate and make the
strawberry shine. This is a not-tomiss beer!
Try all these Queensland beers and more right now at Tap’d bar at the Prince Alfred Hotel at Booval! Cheers, Tim
