500ml bottle @ monthly tasting, Chez Sophie, Nov 19. Thanks Jeremiah for bringing this. Pours a clear deep mahogany, frothy pale tan head. Aroma of nutty rye, brown bread. Taste is twiggy ryebread, distant liquorice, treacle, soft amber malt, medium to light bodied. Fine, straightforward nutty amber.
