Can on the Norfolk Dumpling, thanks to Simon47574, 27/01/24. Light black with a khaki cap. Nose is chocolate, dark malts, spice, dried fruit rinds. Taste comprises salted caramel, mellow roast, tangy fruit esters, biscuit, hint of burnt toffee. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Okay if a little tangy in places.

Keg draught at the Two-Tailed Lion, Leicester. This is very dark brown, only a little bit translucent, with a tiny khaki/tan head. Scent of salted caramel comes through in a big way, with light notes of vanilla and coffee grounds. Sweet taste with lots more caramel, and a bitter hoppy character on the tongue before the finish, followwd by more salted caramel in the aftertaste. Medium body for the ABV and carbonation on the light side. Does what it says on the tin extremely well.
