Liquorice by name and liquorice by nature ! Pours almost black with a small beige head and good lacing. Lots of liquorice in the nose and tons more in the mouth. Some aniseed and roast malts too. Almost forgot – cask at Alexandra, Derby.

Medium sweetness and bitterness with a hint of sour. Medium to full bodied, oily texture, average to soft carbonation. Liquorice dominates the finish.
