/sipping on my Jack Black Lager.
Bought a few different kinds of craft beer today to try but Makro doesn't really have a big selection.

Had some great crafts in the UK last week. Doom Bar was the #1 and followed close by some from the local in Dorset. Punked IPA was ***

Not sure this qualifies and not crazy about the taste:

I suppose anything Mitchell's may still be considered craft.
I won't try it though...I don't consume honey.

Very nice. 4/5

Slightly too bitter. 3/5
A pale ale should be on the bitter side though.

There are some Pilsners with quite high bitterness, like Pilsner Urquell. But yeah the American style ales do dial up the bitterness quite a bit. That being said, a good India Pale Ale is really something quite special - try the Devil's Peak Blockhouse IPA.
If you're in Joburg you could try my beer which is a low-bitterness English ale, only available in Parkhurst.

If you find yourself out somerset west side be sure to pop in at trigger fish breweries. Great selection of beers on tap and really good food too.
Was there yesterday. They have a 9.9% stout called the black marlin. Huge beer with lots of molasses and brown sugar flavours. Certainly the beer you finish with because it kills everything else you have after. Also really enjoyed their imperial IPA the Titan.
