(Draught at Oliver Twist, Stockholm) Dark ruby colour with creamy, beige head. Malty, fruity nose with caramel, black-currant, citrus and toffee. Malty, fruity taste with notes of caramel, a touch of chocolate, black-currant, orange peel and hints of grapefruit and resin in a finish with a generous bitterness. More than medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Tasty and very nice.

Cask at CP&K. It pours deep mahogany brown, with a big beige head. The nose is fresh hop, lots of pine, resin and leaf. The taste is pine, resin, sweet orange citrus, burnt malt, smoke, nut, caramel and bonfire, with a big bitter finish. Medium body, soft carbonation and oily mouth-feel. Tasty stuff.

Cask at Cask Pub and Kitchen, Pimlico, London. A deep amber coloured pour with a medium fluffy white head on top. Nice hoppy, sweet fruity aroma. Tastes hoppy, malty, caramel, quite sweet, fruity. Really easy drinking. Quite a surprise, wasn’t expecting a collaborative brew to turn out so good.
