A warming dark beer that’s perfect for the colder months. The rich malt base is layered with plums, cherries and blackcurrants, topped off with a sprinkling of cinnamon and lemon zest. The end result is a hearty beer packed with caramelised sugar, festive fruit flavours and a toasted finish.

Bottle from Bottle Baron (2017) and can from House Of Trembling Madness (2026). Black body with a thick tan head. No visible carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of liquorice, plum, wood, chocolate and salted caramel. Flavour of dumpling, brown sugar, cherry, berries, toffee, Turkish Delight and a hint of cinnamon on the finish. Medium body with a smooth mouthfeel. Soft fizz. A complex, warming beer. Lovely.

Very dark brown beer, off-white head. Smell is toasted malt, a little toffee and some fruit. The malt is quite strong in the flavour too. A bit of hoppiness, some spice, a dash of citrus but not as fruity as I was anticipating. It's pretty decent but I wouldn't have guessed it was meant to be plummy if I didn't know.
