Örebro Brygghus - Black Oyster Stout.
5.30
Stockholm brewery's colab with BrewDog.
Huge dry stout with oyster and roast malt aroma. Mellow roast and light dried fruits with a dry finish. Excellent. Even better at £5 a pint.

Didn't get any whisky. Is this beer subtle or bland? Difficult to tell though I tend to bland.

Murky as hell hop monster. Tastes like whatever was in the hop store was thrown in.
18th Street - Imperial Blud

Overly complex. (Russian) Imperial Stout dominated by coffee with too rich mouthfeel. Not to my taste.

This was brewed and canned in Berlin. Not impressed. None of the body or depth of the San Diego original. Shame I bought two cans to take away. I'll more carefully check the provenance next time I try Stone beer.

Infused with tart grapefruit it's a refreshing beer with restrained hopping.

Seems very gas dependent. Tonight, slightly thin with limited mouthfeel.

Another slightly sweet and creamy offering. Shame that we don't see the old Stone favourites so often with all these new releases. (Keg)

Stone - 24 Carrot

Badly misjudged and complicated. Overly sweet and creamy.
The pub is found in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, AB25 1EB.
BrewDog's first bar and well worth the wait. Tidy, minimalist decor. As you'd expect plenty of rough brick and unpainted steel.
Limited food at the moment but 6 beers all on keg plus a range of import beers at champagne prices.
We have visited this pub 89 times, seen 126 different beers and tried 84 of them.
