Delicious. Roasty, leather. I call balls and strikes.

Can from the brewery. It pours clear deep ruby red with a beige head. The aroma is bitter - sweet, deep rich maltage, malt loaf, cola cubes, toffee, caramel, dried fruits, glace cherry and some jaminess. The taste is dry, bitter - sweet, cola cubes, malt loaf, brown bread, victoria sponge, light tannin, smooth, cola, toasty, earthy, touch of wood, light leather and toasted brown sugars with a toasty, bitter - sweet finish. Medium body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Pretty exceptional stuff. Flavorful, moreish and dangerously drinkable.

16 oz can from Half Time, 4/5/22. Pours a clear amber color with a beige head. Bread, dough, toffee, earth, and caramel. Clean, crisp, and snappy. Bright and delicious. It's hard to rate this one, because it's so tasty I finish the can before I even get a chance to think about the beer (and I mean that in the most complimentary way possible). This beer is made for communal drinking. Pair it with a dark wooden bar and some good conversation. This is a drinking beer is the perfect sense of the word. Excellent stuff.

16oz can pours a clear earthy brown with a finger of off white head. Nose is nice, malts and bread dough and toast, earthy soil, some blonde coffee grounds. Flavor has some sweet tea, treacle, grains, bread crust. Exemplary for the style. Dry and grainy finish. Super easy to drink.
