The Great Ale Tasting

Over 40 of KZN's finest gentlemen attended Franks second beer tasting even on Tuesday 18th February 2014. 

Ales from Brewers & Union, Jack Black and Devil's Peak breweries were tasted and scored.  

Chris Fraser was the lucky winner from the random draw that received a box of all the beers from the tasting to enjoy at home. 

The most popular beer of the night was Brewers & Union's Sunday and this beer will be added to the Franks fridge. It's a light gentle IPA that is easy drinking.

Franks Ale

Before there was lager, before there was pilsner, before there was wheat beer, there was Ale. Franks now stocks two Ales.  Slowly brewed with floating yeast, Ales have more depth of flavour.  The original way of making beer. These are yours.

Dragon Fiery Ginger

Bringing back the ginger taste with an alcoholic kick. After just one sample to taste, Frank was adamant that he was bringing Cape Town’s sought after alcoholic ginger beer brew to Durban. The Dragon Fiery Ginger beer has a tasty sweetness, which is hardened by the fiery ginger. It’s well balanced with a hint of lemon. A refreshing thirst quencher with a punch. This is yours.

From the mountains in Paarl

A brewery with its very own natural spring - Cape Brewing Company brew their beers with only the best ingredients and use their own natural mineral water. Franks favourites from CBC are the Pilsner and Lager. The CBC Pilsner has a crisp body with a strong hop aroma and nice bitter finish. It has a clear body and medium frothy head. It definitely leaves you wanting another sip! The CBC Lager has become a popular beer at Franks Speakeasy. It is a nice daytime beer that could easily be enjoyed by the case load! It has a medium to full malt body, without the distinct foam and darkness like the commercial lagers. It’s an enjoyable lager with a nice creaminess. “Crisp, hoppy and generous” is how CBC describe it. This is yours.
