#MashTag was an epic experiment in crowdsourcing, which handed the keys to the brewery over to craft beer drinkers for a week. We asked you guys via Facebook and Twitter to direct all the elements of the brew and you decided to brew a 7.5% American Brown Ale with oak chips and hazelnuts.

Cask at the Birmingham Beer Bash 2013. Poured a deep mahogany with a frothy tan head. The aroma is dry dusty roasted malt. The flavour is medium bitter with liqourice and roasted malt on the zesty refreshing palate. A super beer for a hot day.

Dark malty aroma has a nuttily touch, hoppy overtones. Taste is minimally sweet dark malty with a nuttily touch, hints of maple syrup or the like, dry touch of wood, hoppy overtones; hazelnut finish, minimally sticky palate. Nice composition.

Half pint, tap at BrewDog Bar, Stockholm. Deep brownish highlights to a body that is dark as pitch, shiny black surface. Spotty lacing down the glassware. Dark malty nose, hints of anise, mid-sweet. Delicious taste of oak, anise and dark fruits leading to a brown malty ending with bitter roastiness. Super smooth on the swallow. Well blended and well made. A pleasure to drink this one after a long travel and long walk in sunny Stockholm, 26.06.2013.
