Rosé de Gambrinus Taffs

Dirty raspberry/pink grapefruit juice colour. Lemon smoky raspberry. Sharp as vinegar and full of funk. This has been resting since 2019 and has gathered up its uncompromising fruity length and tartness around it.

Lambiek Boon Taffs

Pale amber colour. Lemon and phenols with some smoke and a sweetish finish on the nose. Full bodied and dry with the distinct funk and smoke alongside crisp acidity, bitterness and a long lingering bitter/lemon citrus finish. Not like any other thing

Kriek Boon Taffs

Vibrant cherry red with a deep pink head. More vibrancy on the nose: cherry stones and cherry drops. Sherbet cherry drops on the palate. The fruit sweetness is in balance. A riot of fruit

Oude Geuze Boon Taffs

Pale orange with the light white head. Smoking lemons and sharp piquant spice on the nose. Zippy lemons on the front on the palate. The wine like fruit and the Phenolics come through after and linger longer than you remember. Frankly incredible

Geuze Mariage Parfait Taffs

Deep amber with a soft white rim of foam. Smoke and lemon aroma. Long delicious changing complex flavours. That smoky taste lingers and changes to fresh lemon and then full rich body and so so long

Kriek Boon Taffs

Taken for contrast. Bright pink/cherry red. Maraschino and cherry on the nose huge aromatics: a pretty fabulous smell. Bright bright cherry and this beer just serves the fruit so well. A steadfast and true fresh Kriek.

Kriek 100% Lambic Bio Taffs

It’s been a while since I’ve had this. Deep and opaque red colour. Spicy lemon/raspberry with a hint of smoky complexity. The fruit really leads the way this makes it easy to drink. Despite the sour length and slightly bitter finish.

Rosé de Gambrinus Taffs

Vibrant vibrant pink red. Gunmetal smoke on the nose with some fresh fruit underneath, then savoury. A pink point intense fruit and funk; expressing as smoke, then jam then intensely tart. The spanking fresh fruit balances. Huge and lasts for hours.

This is a mellow creature now. The consummate blender, Frank or Karen (or both) have tamed this and time has done its work. Amber with a creamy head. Fabric Elastoplast, Bret, lemon, the fullness of peachy fruit in the middle, creamy and smoke. Special
