Cask. Fat Cat, Sheffield. Clear, chestnut brown. Thick, tan head. Nose has some milky coffee. Well roasted malt. Some dark fruit. Taste is a little sweet, but mostly it’s earthy, tangy bitter. Light body. Fine carbonation. Quite drying. Lingering dark fruit bitterness to finish. Ok.

Black color with almost no head. Do not look that inviting. Ok intensity in the aroma. Medium body and a soft carbonation level. Tad sweet and a moderate bitterness. Bready, fruity and a fine hop profile.
