Beerbistro

Went to Beerbistro... Although the appetizers and beers were awesome the food was not. I got Peanut Crusted Pork: slow roasted pork with crackling, mango salsa, banana onion jam, sweet potato mash... way too complicated and very poorly cooked pork. The pork was hard and tasted old. All the sauces over complicated the dish. Very dissapointing. B had the grilled chicken breast with polenta and although the first few bites were good the dish again was a bit too much and it got overwhelming very soon.

Our appetizers of fries and bacon wrapped shrimp were in fact delicious. The shrimp had a great combo of spicy and sweet.

The beers we tried were also amazing:

Weihenstephaner Hefe weissbier -A nice light and fragrant white beer.
Ephemere Cassis - Like Ephemere apple but with definite taste of cassis... much like ribena and beer. I loved it, B not so much.
Koningshoeven quadrupel - interesting spicy and sweet beer. I don't think I could drink a whole pint though!
Tillburg Dutch Brown Ale - nutty and bold... your classic beer.
Bitburger Premium Pils - light and refreshing.
fullers london porter - coffee and chocolate. Ok.
Kostritzer Schwarzbier - Interesting and not what you expect. Chocolate and fruit lighter tasting than most dark beers.


In conclusion, I think Beer Bistro is more of an appetizer and drinks place.
