Beer on tap at the Royston

Check out the following beers on tap at The Royston.

It's a beer lovers paradise!!

 

These beers are always on tap...

Mountain Goat Hightail Ale

A traditional English style ‘real ale’.

Deep amber in colour with a rich malt body and floral hop aroma.

Hargreaves Hill Pale Ale

This beer is made the old fashioned way.

Malt, hops and rainwater is all that's required to produce this full-flavoured, hand crafted ale.

Sounds easy, doesn't it? So how come all beer isn’t this good?

Little Creatures Pale Ale

Brewed in Perth, this is a unique style of pale ale which displays

a great balance of flavour and refreshment.

Carlton Draught

What can we tell you about this one that you don't already know?

...this one is always on our hand-pump.

For an authentic ale experience, try...

Holgate Extra Special Bitter

Holgate ESB is a traditional English-style, copper-coloured Bitter Ale.

It's big on hops - both bittering and aroma.

A special blend of crystal and roast malts contribute to a

light roast/nutty flavour that balances the bitterness.

What makes it especially unique is that it is served at the Royston

at room temperature, hand drawn from the cask.

 

And we now have 6 guest taps.

That means we can showcase more of Australia's microbreweries, and you are likely to be able to taste something different every time you visit the Royston.

Here are some examples of what you might expect...

 

Holgate Pilsner

Holgate Pilsner was the only Gold Medal Winner in its class at the 2007 Australian International Beer Awards. And its class was "European Style Lager (draught)", which means it outscored many well known imported European brands.

This beer is the classic ultra pale Bohemian style lager.

Brewed with bucket loads of Saaz hops the Woodend Pilsener is characterised by a clean malt palate with strong grassy & floral hop aroma.

Mountain Goat Surefoot Stout

Mountain Goat's Surefoot Stout. It's a robust, malt-driven ale combining four Australian and imported malts plus some flaked barley for good measure. English Goldings hops are added for bittering and to balance out the malt sweetness.

Goat Brewer Dave sums the stuff up well. "thick, rich, soft burnt-malt flavours with a chocolate/licorice nose and burst of coffee in the back palate...don't be afraid to drink it warm (8c is good)."

It's the ideal winter warmer!

 

Hargreaves Hill Porter

This porter is a dark ale brewed from selected highly kilned varieties of malt, including chocolate malt and carafa. These malts impart a deep mahogany colour and lend rich flavours of chocolate, coffee and mocha to the mid palate. English Goldings are used again to add further complexity and bitterness.
