Looking forward to 'baron rating' Dark Star collaboration ales very soon!

Dark Star Brewing Co. are on of those breweries who are just so friendly it makes you want to add them to your Christmas card list!

I contacted James from Dark Star months ago to request some samples. Then they pulled out all the stops at Christmas and let me do my Baron on Tour: Dark Star.

This week they excelled themselves again by sending through two very special bottles of ale:

Dark Star's collaboration with Kernel

• Imperial Marzen - 9.1% ? RateBeer knows best

Dark Star's collaboration & Thornbridge

• Coalition Old Ale - 7% hazy orange ale,sandlewood & honey aroma,soft honey & resin with monthcoating bitterness

They also sent through a very smart-looking navy polo shirt with the Dark Star funky logo on the breast. Shame they sent a Large as I'm more of a Medium kind of guy but I'm sure Chris will be very pleased with the new addition to his wardrobe! :)


Look out for 'baron ratings' of these Dark Star beers soon, and a big thank you to James from Dark Star for sending these through to me!
