Originally brewed as a Father’s Day request for a Manchester chocolatier this stout has a chocolate backbone without ever coming over too sweet.

Malts kilned until they have developed a chocolate flavour, the rawest form of chocolate and a good helping of the best cacao powder makes this an extremely drinkable mid-abv stout. Originally thought of as a limited edition, this beer quite literally forced its way into our line-up. Its ace all year round.

GBBF Day 2. Cask. Hazy orange gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Light malts bring a light sweetness. Good mango led fruits, some orange in there. Light semi dry finish. Pretty good.
