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.

Very creamy beige head stayed on a near black still body. Malt, demarara, milk & berry aroma. Medium to full bodied, so creamy & full on the palate with a prickly clean finish. A Bitter/Sweet affair of dark sugar, under ripe berries, nectarine, stewed fruit & very bitter peppery finish.

Bottle at L42. It pours hazy dark brown with a small beige head. The aroma is soft, sweet, oily, juicy, plum pudding, hoisin sauce, fruit cake, oily and sticky toffee pudding. The taste is slick, quite sticky, bitter - sweet, brown bread, toasty, charred wood, fruit cake touch of spice, twig and leather with a drying finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. A bit chewy. Fair.
