Can from Cotteridge Wines, Birmingham and shared with the KL tasting crew. Poured a clear dark brown colour with a thin broken tan head. The aroma is roasty malt, coconut, light alcohol. The flavour is moderate to strong sweet, with a smooth, super rich, oily, roasty, coconut, light pepper spice palate. Medium to full bodied with flat carbonation. Awesome.
