Bottle at home – originally from their stall at Macclesfield Treacle Market. I often have trouble detecting the nose of a beer, but no such problem here ! Masses of it, dark chocolate, strong black coffee, molasses, a little spicyness. Quite a bit of foam too – a very lively beige head – but it soon calms down. In the mouth the spices are more to the fore, along with dark fruits, and coffee grounds. Finish is bitter – with alcoholic warmth in the stomach. A pretty decent beer to say the least.
