A velvety-smooth porter with a rich, full-bodied character. Infused with real cinnamon, ginger, clove, and a hint of vanilla, it captures the essence of autumn in every sip. This dark, brooding brew is perfect for cozy nights, offering a warm, spiced embrace with every pour.

Cask @ Fox And Goose, Hebden Bridge. Black with a light-brown creamy head. Good dark malts, fused with a richness within a creamy-smooth texture. Its spice, although more than tolerable is just about its dominant feature though.

10/10/2024. Cask at Nottingham Beer & Cider Festival 2024. Pours very dark brown with a small frothy off-white to beige head. Aroma is well spiced, pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, caramel, chocolate. Moderate sweetness, light bitterness. Moderate body, slightly watery, average to soft carbonation. Enjoyable, liked the spice, would have scored higher if it had the full-bodied character the description said.
