Got some home brew vibes out of this. Flowery and well roasted. Slightly thin body. Some bitterness but not too much. Very dry finish.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Draught at Bishop’s Arms, Malmö
Black color, creamy head. Nice smooth aroma of roasted beans, malt, bread, hop and some yeast. Served at the right temperature, and with a low carbonation, it can easily match a good Real Ale; soft malt body, fresh and smooth, with a lot of fruity caramel, some roasted malt and nuts, aromatic hops; a good balance, all throughout the final as well. Very good.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Draught, at Delirium Cafe.
Dark brown/black with a large light brown head, mostly diminishing. Aroma moderate malty (burnt) and hoppy. Flavor moderate sweet and (too) bitter (bites in the tongue, not in balance). Light body, watery, flat carbonated. Troubles with the taps.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
On draught at Delirium Café, Göteborg.
Almost black in colour. The smell is loaded with juniper. It’s like walking into a julmust factory just before X-mas. Is it the Goldings-inspired First Gold hop? Soft mouthfeel - the oats? - with notes of chocolate but still juniper plays first violin. No roastiness was detected. Little sulphury. Light bodied. Good amount of flavouring hops as the flavour profile is yummy, yet bit unbalanced. The bitterness is thorough but gentle.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draught at Glenfiddich Warehouse 68, Stockholm. Pitch black, firm beige head. Strong chocolatey aroma. Medium sweet with creamy mouthfeel. Mildly roasty with some milky chocolate. Towards the finish toffee, grass and licorice picks up. The bitterness is gentle, but builds up to respectable levels. A schoolbook example of oatmeal stout.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draught at Glenffidich Warehouse No.68, Stockholm. Black with brown edges. Huge, firm and tan coloured head. Smooth aroma of dark chocolate and oatmeal with a distinct note of smoke and crackers. Soft coffee flavour with a tarry aftertaste, notes of licorice.
