Bottle from Beer Ambleside, Ambleside. Extremely dark with a thick frothy off-white head. Nice and smooth, not quite feeling its strength either but retaining a good body and mouthfeel for it. There's not too much roasted character to be found here but nevertheless it's a very drinkable dark malt brew.

Foamy tan head on a near black body. Sarsaparilla, roasted & malt aroma. Medium bodied, smooth with a lively dry clean back. Fruity berry, malt, nutty, sarsaparilla & treacle tastes with a tangy peppery finish. Nice one.

500ml bottle (as Windermere Dog'th Vader): BBE Dec 19. Drank at my brother-in-laws place on 27th May 19. Very dark, black bodied, lightly tanned foaming top. Malts all the way here, chocolate and coffee notes in both the nose and taste, semi-dry finish and not too sweet throughout.

Bottle at Craig’s. Pours dark brown with a thin tan head. Aromas of light chocolate, light roasted malt. Taste is more of the same, not a right lot going on. Finishes clean. OK.
