Cask @ Belfast Beer Festival [141114]
Black, ruby edges, thin white head
Aroma of dark fruits, rum soaked dark fruits, fairly boozy
Taste of sweet dark fruits, soft sweet sherry, sweet fruity dark malts, less booze in the flavour, interesting.
Palate - Medium body, a bit thin. Sweet palate. Finish as main flavour, sweet dark fruits, warming alcohol.
Overall - Nice fruits in this. Wasn’t a stout to me though, maybe more near a strong old ale / porter cross. Hopefully this will come out in bottle. One of the best beers I’ve tried from this brewery so far.
