Interloper, when the existential fear of missing out becomes too much.

A mixture of biscuit, caramel & roasted malts build a dark complex body with a thickness from the oats that leads to smoked coffee, and chocolate flavours.

Hops: Columbus & Cascade

30/10/2023. Cask pour shared by danlo, cheers Ed! Pours clear very dark brown with a small bubbly off-white head. Aroma is dark malts, roasted, chocolate, coffee, vanilla, dark fruits, tar edge. Moderate sweetness, quite heavy roasted bitterness. Moderate body, watery, average carbonation. Not bad.
