A luscious, smooth porter, with hints of spice... nutmeg, cinnamon, coffee, and chocolate make this one a perfect wintery "by the fire" pint.

Cask-conditioned at the Rook & Gaskill, York 17/12/2018. Dark brown in colour, with a tight and creamy, off-white, head. Leafy hops, plain chocolate, a touch of Christmas spice and dark fruit, leading to a dryish finish. Enjoyable.
