500ml beer conditioned bottle from Beers of Europe. Pours a murky brown with small off-white head, thin retention. Aroma of toasted grains and toffee. Taste is very malty with toasted malts, caramel, raisins, yeast and floral hops, slightly burnt noted finish Quite a heavy sticky mouthfeel, low carbonation. There's something a bit homebrew about it but it packs some reasonable flavours.

Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - a nice red colour, fluffy head. Nose - dusty malt, just a hint of red fruits. Taste - more red fruits with again a dusty malt backdrop.
