Cask handpull at Willow Walk ’Sporks. Copper colour with a slight haze and thin beige head. Slightly sweet juicy bitter, with earthy hop. Rather a good fruity/floral/juicy bitter. I like it, good solid 4.1% bitter.

Pour is a dark black with a small tan head. Aroma is some sweet but light caramel malts and a bit of toffee. Flavor is again on the light side with some dark chocolate and roasted coffee. Nothing really good to say about this one and nothing really bad. Its light but drinkable.

Cask Conditioned at Bishop’s Arms, Malmö
Very dark color, with red shades, thin head. Very light aroma, of caramel and sugar. Medium body strength, with a strong flavor of caramel and chocolate malt, and balanced bitterness. In the end the bitterness from the dark malt increases. Not bad.
