This original dark beer has soft malt notes of coffee and chocolate that combine with a pleasant light hoppiness to create a rich, full tasting Old Ale of times gone by.

Pint on tap at the Sussex Arms, Brighton. Jet black beer with thin bubbly white head. Some patchy lacing. Strong aroma of dark chocolate and coffee. Taste follows the nose with some fruit and liquorice in the finish. Sweet and light makes it easy to drink.
