This creamy dark stout, deep chocolate in colour has a nose of roast malts, coffee, liquorice & orange peel. The aromas carry on into the flavour with a smooth mouthfeel, rich malty start, fresh hoppy middle & a delicious lingering sweet orange after taste. Sure to get you marching again on those cold winter evenings.

[as Williams Brothers March of the Penguins, 2020] Bottiglia. Il naso vira verso caffè e cioccolato. La finezza olfattiva è normale, permanendo in maniera sufficiente. Il manto birroso superiore è caratterizzato da una schiuma cremosa e che resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana fine. Il colore è scuro impenetrabile. Il corpo è pieno. Il dolce è medio. L'amaro è contenuto. La forza gustativa è elevata e permane in maniera sufficiente. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. Al gusto vengono donati toni di miele, cioccolato, caffè, liquirizia, frutta secca, pane tostato ed erbaceo.
