The 12th in a series of beers brewed to celebrate our first festival, Friends & Family & Beer, is a Sweet Coconut and Chai Stout brewed with our friends from Monkish, Other Half, Trillium and The Veil. Infused with Bundobust's chai spice blend, as well as coconut, vanilla and almonds, this unique dark beer is one to take your time over, unravelling its many layers.
Aroma & Flavour: Cardamom and clove lead, blending with cocoa and coconut cream, and followed by cinnamon, warm ginger and sweet vanilla
Body: Full-bodied, luscious, rich and silky
Aftertaste: Sweet coconut and toffee, but with dryness provided by a lasting spice heat

On tap at the Bermondsey tap room. Cloudy red pink colour lasting white head. Sweetish cherry. Some lactic presence . Milky cherry flavour. It's got some sweet jammy fruit. It's fine. Not a patch on the real thing though. Some sour pippy finish. OK .

Growler at BD Sheps Boost, thanks to the Wingman for picking up, 22/10/18. Cherry red with a decent crimson covering. Nose is tangy berries, sharp plum, stewed fruits, damp straw, light funk. Taste comprises cherry drops, lightly smoked straw, lemon pissoi, stewed fruits, light funk, hint of damp wood. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a mellow acidic whisper. Decent. Decent light and refreshing sour with a mellow pucker at the curtain call.
