WHAT’S NEW?

Wine|Art|Musical Festival 2022

Our new way of cooking

Nobody is able to rely on Eskom any longer, and neither are we. Also, we're venturing into making meals healthier and more authentic, hence our reluctance to introduce "old" favourites like fried foods. Risky, we know...but we've deliberately moved away from the 'average' and rather opted for freshly made, artisanal food from our wood-burning clay oven.

SMACK Republic Brewing Company Craft Beer
AVAILABLE ON-TAP

GOLDEN ALE Deep gold colour with good clarity and a small but creamy white head. Medium grainy, biscuity, and honey-like malt aromas. A light spicy herbal hop note is present and there are some light berry fruit aromas from the yeast. Overall, a very ‘clean’ profile. This is the beer for someone looking for a pale lager (castle light etc) or someone looking for something very easy drinking. It offers all the balance and drinkability the average beer drinker wants and is

GOLD PALE ALE Deep gold colour with light haze and a moussey white head. Medium sweet honey aroma with some biscuit and toasted brioche/bready notes. Medium rooibos aroma (fynbos, sweet, grassy, herbal) and a light red apple and berry note. Quite similar to blonde ale which is a popular craft beer style. This beer comes across as quite sweet so is ideal for someone who doesn’t like bitterness. May appeal to a Black Label drinker because of the light fruitiness. Rooibos can be quite divisive in beer so best to prime the drinker for what to expect.

INDIA PALE ALE (IPA) Copper coloured with a light haze which is expected for hoppy beers. Frothy off-white head with good lacing – also expected from hoppy beers. Bold grapefruit, mango, lychee and papaya (tropical fruits) hop aroma with light grassy notes. Hops are the star but backed up with malt aromas of toast, caramel and cookies. IPA can be overwhelming for the uninitiated. They tend to appeal to people who enjoy complexity and bitterness. A good approach is to set expectations. Highlight the sweet malt and fruity hop notes and their role in managing bitterness. IPA often appeals to non-traditional beer drinkers, and it may be helpful to make comparisons to wine and cocktails which have flavour and mouthfeel overlap with these beers.
