Mini can shared with L&M. It pours slightly hazy dark Irn Bru orange with a small white head. The aroma is rich and boozy, oily orange, tangerine, marmalade sandwiches, melon, spice, light vanilla, dried fruits, fruit cake, marzipan, panettone and diet Irn Bru. The taste is slick, oily, bitter - sweet, plenty of warming booze, candied orange, marmalade, raisin, poached pear, apple, melon, sultana, honeyed grain, marzipan, brandy soaked fruit cake, spice and some dry oak with spicy and warming finale. Fulsome body and average carbonation. Good depth of flavour. Probably my least favourite of the series, but still rather enjoyable.

Can split at the farewell to Monica tasting, Watford, picked up from Rad Beer online 20/09/24. Clear amber with a just off white covering that thins to a swirl. Nose is fruit cake, sugars, caramel, biscuit, stewed fruits, herb. Taste comprises caramel, brown sugars, figs, fruit cake mix, brandy snap biscuit. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a warming blast of alcohol. Tidy sipper .. would have liked a touch more barrel.
