A Jamaican Stout, a style of beer linked to legendary singer from just down the road in Sheffield, Steve Papa Edwards’ heritage from that part of the world. It is a robust 5% Stout brewed with Muscovado Sugar which gives the beer a delicious hint of Caribbean rum. The complex dark malt recipe in this beer creates an excellent balance with the sugars used.

Cask @ Vocation & Co, Hebden Bridge. Black with a small head. Has some roasted malts, a small sweetness, but it's its smoothness that really stands out.
