2/1/2020. Bottle from Two Brews, Colchester. Pours lovely thick black with a deep tan head. Aroma of dark chocolate, roasted malt, coffee, dark fruits, vanilla, caramel, chocolate biscuit, winter berries and a touch of spice. Medium sweetness and moderate roasted bitterness. Full bodied, slick texture, average carbonation. Rich, packs more punch than its 5.6% suggested. All round lovely.
