Cask at CBC, Covent Garden on 17th November 2019. Rated as a novelty ale. Sepia black with tan foam and scant lacing. Roasty aroma with sweet cherry. The in-mouth taste is of roasty malts and glacé cherries. A very sweet finish of sugared cherry and maltiness. A fair bit of body and a smooth mouthfeel.
