cask, media pinta. Probada el día 27/01/2018 en "Manchester Camra Beer & Cider Festival". Color negro brillante con una espuma baja pero consistente. Aroma de maltas tostadas, débil madera ahumada, chocolate negro y regaliz. El sabor presenta también notas ahumadas y tostadas, llevando a un final bastante seco. Bastante bien equilibrada. Next one please!
