Can shared in London - big thanks to Fergus. Pours clear ruby with a small, frothy white head. The aroma holds restrained smoke, toffee, dried berries. Medium sweet flavour with nice bready character, more toffee, light berries, soft smoke. Medium bodied, lightly oily, with fine carbonation. Pretty smooth finish, some creamy toffee, more mellow smoke. Fun stuff.
