omhper (10950), Stockholm, Sweden Aug 5, 2003 <i>Sampled cask conditioned at Oliver Twist, Stockholm.</i><br />
Amber colour. Grapefruit aroma. Fruity, rounded and salty. Raisiny and smooth up front, but rugged and bitter in the finish. Oakes (7032), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Oct 19, 2003 Bright copper colour. Minerally, earthy, marmaladey aroma. The palate is complex, juicy, earthy, hoppy. Their yeast is absolutely wonderful, adding layers to their beers. Truly one of Britain's showpiece breweries, Harviestoun is well-deserving of their CBOB award for Bitter & Twisted. The Indian Summer is a better beer, but these guys are a stellar representative of what British brewing should be in the 21st century. fonefan (5562), Ulfborg, Denmark Oct 19, 2006 Bottle. Bright amber color with a good white head and moderate condition. Low citrus hop aromas, some sweet malt in the mouth with good level of resinous hop flavour and a relatively long hop bitter finish. harrisoni (5474), Ashford, Kent, England Jan 28, 2008 Cask handpull at Bacchus, Newcastle. Bit of tea flavour, more a best bitter but with good hop on end. duff (5407), Sydney, Australia, Surrey, England Jul 13, 2004 Cask@Dartford BF. A bit dissaponting to be honest. Thin and grainy, with a touch of tangy hops in the finish, pretty grainy. Light salty finish, a bit thin.
