The ABV of this beer changed from 7.4% in late 2020, and it has since been introduced into the Vocation core range.
The recipe for Naughty & Nice remains exactly the same as always except that we have dialled back the ABV to 5.9% now that it’s going to be with us year-round. Reducing the ABV increases the drinkability – it’s still a hefty beer, but just that bit more quaffable.

440ml can bought as part of a delivery from the brewery and drunk at home. Very dark brown - not very translucent with a short-lived brown head. I'm getting vanilla bean and lashings of chocolate fudge in the aroma. Taste is sweet with chocolate to the fore. Toucher of bitterness in the finish but the transition feels natural. Light to medium body with low carbonation. Very well done.

8/4/2023. Can shared at SBGP2. Bought direct from the brewery. Pours very dark brown with a small frothy creamy beige head. Good looking beer. Aroma of chocolate, roasted malt, camp coffee, toffee, honeycomb, dark fruits. Medium sweetness, moderate bitterness, touch of tart. Medium body, slightly creamy, average carbonation. Pretty good.

Darkest brown. Aroma is heavy cocoa vanilla dark chocolate and pecan. Taste is deep sweet nut with chocolate and cocoa but also with a sour fizzy hoppy bitter layer. Medium body (as expected from the abv). Still very soothing and with a long pleasant finish.

440ml can. Near black in colour, with a thin, beige, head. Big, milk chocolate aroma with some vanilla oak in the background. Flavour had some big chocolate character that coated the mouth, with some fudgy malt sweetness, a slight toastiness and rich finish. Very good.
