(Cask at Oliver Twist, Stockholm) Colour is amber, with little head. Nose is fruity, with citrus, some grapefruit, balanced dusty hoppiness and hints of spice and some smoke. Taste starts fruity, turns maltier with nutty notes and a balanced, rather dry finish. Not bad at all, but you might expect more bite from Dark Star.

[Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm] Pale amber. Unusual soapy perfumy haroma. Medium sweet with cxlean mouthfeel and medium body. Really smokey with notes of ash. Strange finish with some plasctic and salty bitterness.

Cask handpull at Market Porter, Borough. Deep copper colour with thin white head. Blackcurrant herby hop aroma (could have willamatte hops) Bit of yeast. Bit of choc malt in mouth. Bready. Smokey bacon finish. Really impressive beer. Very good malt.
