Bottle thanks to Manny G. It pours clear deep reddish-brown with a medium beige head. The nose is toasty, woody, cinnamon bun, toffee, varnish, plenty of soft fruits and berry. The taste is slick, sweet, toffee apple, dried apricot, raisin, booze, toasted brown sugar, caramelised banana, wood, light spice and fruit cake with some warmth towards the finish. Medium-full body, moderate carbonation and foamy mouth-feel. Rich, slick and boozy. Rather decent if a touch sweet.
