Doppelganger (1197), Oxford, Oxfordshire, England Jun 17, 2008 Cask, Summer Festival at Far From The Madding Crowd, Oxford. Ultra-pale gold, small layer of fine white. Fresh hay and bubblegum aroma. Fine textured cedar bitterness, a little pollen, very light grainy malt. Clean, refreshing and well-crafted. A really pleasant beer. But it suffers by comparison: for the average brewery, this would be a good effort. For Dark Star, it’s fairly average.
