Inspired by a classic English porter and the brown and amber colours of the winter seasons; we blended nine different malts, including five light to medium roast variants for notes of biscuit, toast and dark chocolate.

The malted and flaked oats have been added both for mouthfeel and to contribute some delicate nutty flavour. There’s a touch of dark crystal malt in there too to lend dark fruit notes. Hopped with some pine-led US varieties in the form of Simcoe and Chinook alongside maltodextrin for body. We then fermented at low temperatures with a classic English ale strain for a clean flavour profile with hints of dark cherry and berry fruits.

Finally, we introduced hazelnut, cacao and Madagascan vanilla for a decadent dark treat, inspired by and suited to both warm winter nights in and wild adventures in the great outdoors.

Really like the nuttiness here, does some funky things with the chocolate and brings a nice lightness to it

Can. Wine Rack, Sharrow, Sheffield. Murky, dark brown. Film of lacing, tan head. Nose has rich praline. Hint of milky coffee. Taste is initially very sweet and nutty, with an intense, tangy bitterness. Medium body. Low carbonation. A little slick. Lingering bitterness to finish. Nice enough, albeit a little unbalanced on the sweet and bitter front.
