Originally conceived to celebrate the 20th anniversary of The Oliver Twist bar in Stockholm, Craftwerk is a 5% US/German style Pale Ale, using a UK Pale Malt/German speciality malt bill, Centennial whole hops in the hop back and then dry hopped with Hallertau Mittelfruh and Centennial in conditioning. Fresh and easy to drink with a light body and herbal/citrus almost ginger beer hop flavour, perfect summer drinking.

On tap at Oliver Twist, Stockholm as ’OT Rocks’. Hazy gold beer, little white head. Palate is smooth but shot through with prickly carbonation. Thin creamy malt supports decent hops - sweetish orange hops, little peel. Whispers of skunk and lemon. Finishes crisp. Super refreshing - necked a pint in about 3 mins!

Keg at CBC Islington. It pours clear golden with a medium white head. The nose is earth, dough, spice, grass, varnish, apricot and nectarine. The taste is upfront bitterness, earth, dough, grass, touch of spice and orange citrus with a dry, bitter finish. Medium body and moderate, effervescent carbonation. Smooth, well balanced and rather drinkable!

Keg at CBC Islington - London. Pours clear gold, effervescent, with a moderate, creamy white head. Lovely dried citrus aroma, rife with grapefruit, tangerine and delicate pine. Restrained pale malts in the flavor, light to medium sweetness, further dry grapefruit, some melon. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation. Clean finish, lightly resinous, mostly citrusy hops with touches of piney and herbal bite. A great sessioner.
