Keg draught at BrewDog Leicester. Dark brownish red with a film of off-white head on top. Sweet malty aroma with a little bit of rum and woody/earthy notes. Sweet taste, very malt led with the rum present yet not allowed to dominate. Some bitter sourness in the long finish. Light body with soft to medium carbonation. It's good enough.

Bottle shared in Canary Wharf - cheers to Fergus. Pours clear red-brown with a small, foamy topping. Moderately tart, with brown bread, a few berries. Medium to full bodied with fine carbonation. Moderately warming to finish, with light old wood notes, more berries, nips of toffee. Pretty good stuff.
