Bottle. Xmas gift from the missus. 5.6%. Nearly black. Swirly dense slim beige foam. Looks good. Nose has creamy chocolate. Bit of a dark chocolate mousse thing. Nice vinous character. Inevitably there’s a rum and raisin ice cream thing too. Taste is fairly sweet as expected but there’s enough hop bitterness to keep it from being lairy and lactic. Smooth and nicely drinkable overall. Slight bitterness on the finish. Nice one.

Friday afternoon, 17th January 2025. Hand-pulled half-pint in the Boat House, Skipton. Myself, Margie, Bertie, Ant and Maureen on a crawl. Black with a tanned head. Fairly viscous with a distinct Rum and Raisin like aroma and taste, pretty sweet throughout, I enjoyed it, but a half was just about the right amount.

Cask at Tipsy Turtle, Stockton. Black colour, beige foam head leaving some lacing and aroma of chocolate, roast malt, rum & raisin notes. Taste is sweet, roasty, dark chocolate, rum & raisins, vanilla, with ashy bitterness. Smooth mouthfeel, medium bodied, soft carbonation, roasty chocolatey bitter finish. Nicely drinkable.
