@ Kay’s Bar. The aroma is mostly buttery with a little bit of toast. Bright, brown with a thick head. Toasty palate, light bitterness and some diacetyl as well. This brewery has a lot of this sort of problem from what I can tell.

(Cask at Oliver Twist, Stockholm, 8 Dec 2009) Reddish brown colour with creamy, beige head. Malty, slightly roasted nose with notes of dark fruit, caramel and hints of coffee. Malty, slightly roasted taste with nuts, coffee, dark fruit, caramel, toffee and a mild spicy bitterness. Below medium body, dry. Nice, tasty and highly drinkable.

Small offwhite creamy head slowly settles. Slightly hazy yellow body. Fruity sugary floral aroma with resiny notes. Sweetish-dry dusty resiny wooden taste with strawy grainy notes. Smooth, mild mouthfeel, though very dusty. Clean, fresh palate. Dry dusty wooden grainy aftertaste with floral notes. Excellent! (0.25l cask, Oxford Bar, Edinburgh.)
