Cast Iron Billy is a luxuriously smooth and heady stout that harkens back to the smog-filled streets of a Victorian London consumed by the industrial revolution. Imperial in terms of its ABV, this 10.5% delight is a majestic drop of roasty and malty beer that packs aromas of coffee, dark berry flavours and delicate hints of vanilla. A real treat of a brew that should be savoured slowly and enjoyed to the fullest.

Bottle from Ales by Mail. Pours dark brown with a thin ring of beige head. Aromas of dark malt, faint chocolate, nuts. Taste is nutty, quite thin to be honest, expected a richer mouthfeel. Moore chocolate and nuts to finish.
