Sampled cask conditioned at both Akkurat & Oliver Twist, Stockholm, Sweden.
Interesting experiment, drinking the same cask ale within half an hour on two different pubs. It was amber coloured, and at Akkurat it had a pronounced flowery hop aroma, which was less obvious at Oliver Twist where it was sweet, but the soft, whipped cream mouthfeel at Akkurat was not there at Oliver Twist, where it was more watery and fruity. Also the hop aromatic finish was more powerful at Akkurat, but at both places the bitterness was rather low. I believe this was the last beer from a big shipment that both pubs racked, and somehow Akkurat got the better hand this time, however I know both places do their utmost to assure good quality of their cask ales. Rating stated is the one that was served at Akkurat.
