Gravity cask at the St Neots ’Booze on the Ouse’ Beer Festival 2016. Purplish-black and delightfully impenetrable. Light brown ring of head. Charcoal, rock salt and stone fruit in the moody and complex aroma... more than a hint of smoke. Sweet and fruity taste, but weaker and less intense than what was promised in the aroma. Body surprisingly weak, and the finish is short and a bit messy... some of the sweet/savoury interplay is interesting though. Still an above average beer despite its flaws, and worth seeking out.
