What started life as a beautiful accident born of experimentation, has gone on to become one of our best-loved beers.

Unusual for this style, we brew it with a wheat yeast, but we love the added texture and fruitiness it brings, alongside the rich and roasted flavour from the malts. Carbonated using nitrogen for an extra rich drop.

Stout at the brewery, I am pretty sure it was the kegged not draft version. It was a deep reddish brown in color with figs and plums in the aroma. The taste gave me fruits - rich raisins and malts. I felt it was more like a bitter than a stout but nice enough.

Cask: Literally black with a ruby sheen, firm and creamy tanned head; sweet fruity and toasty nose, dried black berries detectable; moderate sweet-bitter flavour with a pretty subdued acidity; slightly lingering sweet-bitter fruity and toasty finish. Good, but still a bit sweet...
