Yeah they are like what you get at the footy but smaller

 

Was a bit annoyed with bent spoke brewing  they didn't fill to the top of glass.

My tip for anyone attending GABS 2023:

I'm no expert but I did manage to sample somewhere in the region of 80 beers. Upon a day's reflection the one that sticks in my mind was #54, Working Title Brewing's Take 5 Choc Caramel Peanut Butter Cup Double Milk Stout. It's worth trying even if only to experience that aroma.

You should try some Sahti and tell us how it is

Don't you worry, I'll be sampling as much as I can get into my system 🙂 I'm hoping for some decent beers in all places...and some not-so-decent ones.

That sounds quite yummy but possibly sweet a/f

Yeah, definitely on the desert stout side of the ledger, not the session stout side. Not as sweet as the Iced Vovo sour, though.
