Cask @ Akkurat. Bitter beer with notes of chocolate, reisin and licorice. Very hoppy and very american.

Cask at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Cloudy ruby, rich head. Caramelly nose with ripe fruit and hay. Sweet with medium-full body and rounded mouthfeel. Heavy caramel and coffee, notes of cherry, some hay. Quite bitter finish.

Cask at CP&K. It pours clear deep brown with a thick light tan head. The nose is bitter-sweet, fresh pine, varnish, grapefruit, resinous, peppery spice and toffee. The taste is bitter, woody, resinous, varnish, pine needles, earth, mild astringency and some spice with a lingering dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Pretty intense and a touch astringent perhaps. Overall its a rather decent beverage.

Keg at the Blue Moon, Cambridge. Dark (but not too dark) brown, translucent. Thin film of khaki head on the top. Milk chocolate, oak chips, buttered toast with a smidgen of cinnamon in the scent. Tease starts lovely and sweet, then turns on you with an aggressive but sexy bitter hoppy bite. Finish is decidedly bitter. A very nice beer indeed.
