An apocalyptic Autumn ale with unique herbal notes balanced by the sweetness of black treacle. Pleasantly dark, smooth and deep.
Target hops are combined with Pale Ale, Crystal, Brown and Black malts. The addition of black treacle makes this beer sinfully good.

Handpull cask at the Old Horse, Leicester. Orange/tan, clear, with a small compact off-white head. Butterscotch and hazelnut aroma. Pleasant but a touch artificial. Bittersweet biscuity taste with harsher hop flavour at the end. It's nicely balanced and has a pleasant silky palate. Not perfect but enjoyable enough.

Cask at PoW, Farnborough. Vague malty aroma. Medium brown. Thin off-white head. Medium bitter. Guess the treacle may contribute to this but it's not obvious. A burnt caramel at best. Thin. Watery. Flat. Abrupt. More kick than I expected but a bore.
