Cask (gravity dispense), London Drinker Beer Festival, March 2006. Golden amber in colour. Sweetish aroma with plenty of grassy, spicy hops. More citric on the palate, with grapefruit prominent and a fair amount of backbone. Fairly typical of a Dark Star beers but I thought it had just a little less presence than some of their beers. Pretty good though.

Cask at the London Drinker Festival. Floral hop aroma. Simple malt character, Juicy citrus fruit, American style hops and some sharp lemon juice.

Cask@London Drinker. Quite a cracking ale. Hoppy, aromatic, with subtle notes of lychee and grapefruit. Typical Dark star effort, very hoppy and delicious, really enjoyable and a great way to start the fest!

Cask (London Drinker 06): Hoppy grassy nose. Golden in colour. Grassy, herbal hop flavour dominates, with some mild citric notes. Simple malts in the background. Very refreshing and moreish.
