Cask at CPK, Pimlico on 25th July 2026. Deep sepia with tan foam and spot lacing. Pungent aroma, roasty aroma with hint of apple. Roasty in-mouth with sour notes. A roasty finish, again with sour notes and the hint of fresh apple. Full body with smooth mouthfeel.

Stockport Beer Festival 2026 Beer#9. Not black, just very dark red, not that it matters as the rye part is the crux and is spot-on here in a palatably strong brew with a low-to-mid bitterness. Sweet dark-malty aroma and taste.
