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.
