Dark brown with a frothy light tan head and a fruit malt aroma. Smooth with dark fruits, some roasted malt and a dry, very slightly bitter finish.

Cask at The Rusty Bucket, Eltham. Nose is prunes, plum jam, fresh tobacco, dark fruits. Taste is much the same. Jammy fruity finish.

Аромат очень понравился, приятные и сильные ноты от сливы, причем сладкой, как будто намеки на варенье, есть как будто ягоды типо яживики и малины Цвет темный но на просвет, пенка есть не большая, крупно пузырчатая. Вкус питкий, снова а основе слива сладкая, но очень притная. От нее при глотке кислинка небольшая. Как будто листья от смородины черной, снова как будто варенья ягодное. В целом очень зашло, хоть и питко.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Pours near black with small beige head with nice lacing. Aroma of roasted malts, dusty chocolate, fruity plum. Taste follows the same path - roasty, cocoa dusting, fruity plum but a well balanced adjunct addition, a light grassy and spicy hop. Medium bodied, semi-drying. Good stuff.

Spotty beige head on a chestnut coloured still body. Plum, earthy & vegetal aroma. Medium bodied, smooth with a sticky back. Malt, biscuit, plum & caramel tastes with a fruity lightly hopped finish. Nice drinker.
