Perfect for crisp autumn evenings, this rich, dark brown ale captures the essence of autumn with a balanced profile that leans toward bitter sophistication. Its aroma is a warm medley of spiced fruits, tempting the season’s comforts, while the flavour unfolds with layers of roasted malt and subtle fruitiness.

The biscuit barrel at my grandparents was my favourite, deep and always a full tin of excellent choices for a sweet-tooth child! Darker clear amber, good autumnal floral notes coupled with a few biscuit styled malty additions. Its smooth texture is notable too.
