A big body yet light and easy to drink. Ideally matched with slow cooked meat dishes like shanks, beef cheeks, stews and bakes, this ale is also a favourite with desserts.

Craft Islington bottle share. Thanks to Leighton. Hazy deep amber - brown beer, small tan head. Dry palate, good carbonation. Mellow dry dark malts, some roast. Dark fruits before a dry bitter finish. It’s okay, bit harsh on the hop side.

Keg at CBC Holborn, 10/03/17. Pitch black with a well appointed tan covering that retains well. Nose is rich roast, light coffee, spice, bramble berry, earthy hop. Taste comprises brown bread, biscuit, liquorice, light pine tingle, hop dusting, blood orange. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close splashed with earthy hop bitterness. Respectable enough CDA.
