26/8/2021. Cask at the 2021 East Anglian Beer Festival, Bury St Edmunds. Pours black with a small bubbly tan coloured head. Aroma of liquorice, ash, roasted malt, dark chocolate, dark fruit, coffee biscuit. Moderate sweetness, light roasted bitterness. Medium body, oily creamy texture, soft carbonation. Looked good, with great depth for its abv. Enjoyable.
