Draught at Söder om Småland, Malmö
Very dark color, almost black, with compact head. Strong aroma of roasted malt, some coffee, hidden sweaty hop. Dry mouthfeel, a bit ashy, spoiling the hop character that strives to show some fruitiness.
Not a good combination.

From tap. Pours dark brown to black with a small tan head. Aroma dark malty and grapefruity. Citrusy and crisp hoppy. Fruity, smooth and lingering peachy. Bitter and crisp finish. Ends fruity and slight dry.

Black with a tan head. Coffee and hops in the aroma. Hoppy and roasted taste with roasted malt and resin. Dark color, pale ale taste.

Draught sample @ Bishops Arms Park Avenue courtesy of Marsiblursi. Pours hazy blackish dark brown with a frothy blackish beige head that slowly dissipates while leaving lots of trace on the glass. Smell is fruity, malty and herbal with roasted malts, burnt crispbread, ammonium chloride, peaches, mango, honeydew melon, freshly cut grass, dark roast coffee, pine needles, passionfruit, burnt caramel, lemon zest and pink grapefruit juice. Taste is bitter, slightly sour, slightly fruity and herbal with heavily roasted malts, ammonium chloride, dark roast coffee, burnt toast, grapefruit rinds, freshly cut grass, pine needles, lemon zest, resinous wood, unripe tropical fruits, ripe gooseberries and hints of moist soil, black currant leaves, lemon juice and dusty cereal. Mouthfeel is dry, tiny round, dusty, slightly astringent and light bodied. Finish is bitter and tiny sour with heavily roasted malts, grapefruit rinds, dark roast coffee, burnt toast, unripe tropical fruits, black currant leaves, pine needles, moist soil, lemon juice and hints of dusty cereal and sambuca. Nice light BIPA that packs a punch but there are some off things that keep it away from perfection. Not a huge fan of the dusty toasted cereal feel and the roast and hops provides a slight sourness to the taste I would have preferred not to be there.
