Bottle shared at the level 42, 24/05/2016. Huge thanks to Big dave for this one. A reddy caramel brown coloured pour with a lasting sticky cream head. Aroma is nice jammy fruit, pine, hint of toast malts. Flavour is composed of toast grains, light roast, grapey fruit, jammy, pine, really good balance. Palate is frothy carbonation, medium carbonation. Very good.

Big dirty bottle thanks to Big Dave. It pours black with a thick light tan head. The aroma is rich, juicy, sweet roast, pine, jammy fruits, sweet orange citrus, mango, passion fruits, treacle and Eccles cake. The taste is bitter, sweet roaste malts, cocoa, burnt pine, dried fruits, light spice, tar, orange peel and peppery spice with a lingering dry - bitter finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Pretty tasty.
