Our second ever beer is dark in colour but light in body. Roasted malts upfront, all German hops mixing it up before a perfect dry finish. Super limited quantity on this session black ale!

Keg at the King’s Arms. A mostly clear mahogany brown coloured pour with a lasting beige head. Aroma is nutty malts, earthy chocolate powder, vanilla extract, light dried fruits. Palate is medium light, slightly tangy, moderate carbonation, grainy. Flavour is composed of earthy nutty malts, light smoked malts, mineral, hint of powdered chocolate,. Not bad.
