Keg at Bow Bar. It pours cloudy deep mahogany brown with a small beige head. The nose is sweet, juicy, fudge, toffee, Scottish tablet, vanilla shortbread, lemon curd and fruit cake. The taste is bitter-sweet, big toffee action, vanilla extract, earthy, toast, dark fruits, raisin, fruit cake, biscuit, fudge, lemon parfait and white sugar with a dry, lightly warming finish. True to its word. A bit sweet for me, but good fun anyhow!
