Cask at Lord Burton, Burton-on-Trent Pours a very dark red-brown with a tight beige head. Has an aroma of mixed fruits with a touch of cocoa. In the mouth the taste swings from an initial fruityness (raspberries) to choclate and then back to fruits again. Plenty of roast malts in there as well. Finish is bitter and earthy. This is a very good beer.
