My now annual visit to the beer festival here – I see that I did not get around to writing it up last year. The format is as ever – small sampling glasses, tokens for beer and a selection of brewers present to supplement the normal bar. Weather a bit drizzly, so the crowd mostly packed inside rather than out on the quayside.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Buddelship - Smook in de Piep | 9.60 | | A superb, black, strong, rich-tasting, barrel-aged Porter. |
| Drift Brouwers - Hijs IPA (2018) | 6.50 | | A strongly-flavoured, typically US West Coast-style IPA. |
| 4 Islands - Geronimo! Guava IPA | 4.80 | | A fruity, golden IPA. |
| 4 Islands - Blind Lion | 6.00 | | A pale golden, murky, fruity IPA. |
| Brouwerij Noordt - Seven Hops Double Pale Ale | 6.00 | | A strong, golden Pale Ale that is very well-hopped. |
| Buddelship - Mr B | 6.70 | | Yet another juicy, fruity, murky, golden concoction. |
| Brouwerij Frontaal - Juice Punch v.7 | 5.80 | | Exceptionally juicy and fruity. |
| Senses Microbrasserie - Chardonnay Pale | 5.00 | | I loved this pale beer which tasted more like wine than beer. |
| Magic Rock - Fridge Life | 7.00 | | Fruity Yorkshire murk. |
| De Kaapse Brouwers - Cheeky Camille | 5.20 | | A White Bordeaux barrel-aged version of this golden beer. In fact it tastes rather more of barrel than it does of beer (in a nice way). |
| Brouwerij Noordt - Brut IPA | 7.00 | | Very pale and very, very dry. |
| Senses Microbrasserie - Ocean of Night | 7.00 | | A slightly odd Oatmeal Stout. Dark brown in colour and sweetish, with a bit of chocolate. |

Sunday evening session at the Borefts After Festival. A mild evening and great sitting out on the dockside. Good to see several familiar faces here from London.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kwartje - Upgrade | 9.20 | | Top class chili Imperial Stout. Wonderful stuff. |
| Nøgne Ø - Imperial Brown Ale (keg) | 7.20 | | Strong brown ale from Norway. Badged as 7.5%. |
| Oedipus - Vogelen | 4.00 | | A dry-hopped Berlinner Weiss. Shocking first taste but quickly grew on me. |
| Het Uiltje - Big Fat 5 | 8.00 | | A very tasty IPA. |
| Kompaan - Hand Langer | 8.00 | | Another very tasty, strong IPA-style beer. |
| Austmann Bryggeri - Austmann IPA | 6.50 | | I’m on a run of excellent IPAs this-evening. This one from Norway. |
| Guineu - Juicy Jones | 6.50 | | A collaboration beer with Bristol’s Moor Brewery. A great beer. |
| Hof Ten Dormaal - Kriek | 6.50 | | An exceptionally nice cherry beer. |
| Kaf & Koren - Tropicana | 5.50 | | Another great Dutch IPA. |
| Katjelam - Bloei | 5.40 | | Golden-coloured Sour beer. |

Enjoyable evening session at the ‘Borefts After Festival’, a spillover from this weekend’s Borefts Bier Festival at de Molen. Pleasant enough to sit out by the quayside into the evening. Eight brewers have stands here alongside the home-brew operation.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oedipus - Hosanna DIPA | 8.00 | | Fabulous, golden beer, heavily-hopped with Simcoe. |
| De Kaapse Brouwers - Jeanette | 7.50 | | Golden, heavy, very hoppy, West Coast IPA. |
| De Kaapse Brouwers - Lennie Mt Hood | 10.50 | | Powerful, US-hopped DIPA. |
| Van Moll - Suave | 5.00 | | A Pale Ale brewed with gin botanicals and cucumber. |
| Põhjala Öö - Imperial Baltic Beer | 10.50 | | Thick and black. |
| Raven Bone Hill - Jolly Roger – Scavenger | 6.60 | | Fiercely chilli-flavoured. Vanilla too. |
| Het Uiltje - Pepper Spray Porter | 8.20 | | Chilli-flavoured beers usually creep up on you over the course of the glass. This one hits you in the face immediately at first sip. |
| La Quince - Double Baden | 8.20 | | A Spanish-brewed, full-on, US-style IPA. |
| Het Uiltje - Imperial Porter Ardmore B.A. | 15.70 | | The strength of this beer was actually given as 18.7%, probably the strongest I have ever drunk (although not quite the strongest on sale here today). It is beyond my comprehension of what a beer is to be honest. |
| De Kaapse Brouwers - Kwartel | 6.00 | | A collaboration with Kees!. A very murky brown Smoked Porter. |

More than a hint of Hackney Wick about this area of Rotterdam! We only had a little over an hour at the start of what looked to be a great little beer festival here, with ten (mostly) new-ish brewers selling their beers and a great range of food available. Set up as a ‘Borefts After Festival’ and already getting busy when we had to leave at 1:15. Other breweries present were ‘T Ij, Kompaan, Mommeriete and Oedipus.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| De Kaapse Brouwers - Bea | 6.00 | | A very tasty, Black Rye IPA. |
| Van de Streek - Hop Art #5 Black IPA | 6.80 | | I do love a Black IPA, and this is a really good one. Strong, smooth and hoppy. |
| Ramses - Den Dorstige Tijger | 6.60 | | An orangey-brown IPA. Some sweet caramel, bitter finish. |
| Oersoep - Sgt. Pepper | 6.00 | | A golden, cloudy, spicy, Saison. |
| Brussels Beer Project - Dark Sister | 6.70 | | Dark brown and malty, with a bitter finish. |
| Rooie Dop - Little Dump Strawberry Porter | 3.50 | | Very odd – as odd as its name in fact. Muddy brown in colour. A roasted, bitter Porter with strawberry tastes. Brewed in collaboration with Buxton Brewery. |
