500 ml bottle, from Selfridge’s food store, London. ABV is 5.5%. Very dark brown colour, large to moderate beige head. Nice malty aroma and flavour, notes of caramel, dark dried fruits and nuts, hints of chocolate. Rich mouthfeel. Moderate but noticeable hops in the finish. Well balanced and very enjoyable.

Bottle online from Ocado. Pours a very dark brown almost black with a slight reddish hue and a medium sized creamy beige head. Aromas of dark fruits, chocolate, roasted malts, treacle and liquorice. Taste is more dark fruits, chocolate, coffee, roasted malts, burnt brown bread and a touch more liquorice. Medium body, low carbonation and smooth slightly oily mouthfeel. Quite a nice wintery beer.

Bottle. Deep dark brown color. raisinny, almost vinous aroma with licorice and some earthy hops. Malty, just a bit salty, vinous and nutty flavor with licorice and some earthy hops, lingering on in the aftertaste. Tasty ale, satisfyingly balanced.
