Dark dark black colour with virtually none head at all. Aroma is heavy malty, roasted, chocolate, coffee, soy sauce, licorice. Flavour is heavy sweet and light to moderate bitter with a long long duration, soy sauce, licorice, roasted, sweet sugar - syrup, peat. Body is full, texture is syrupy and sticky, carbonation is flat flat, finish feel is moderate alcoholic, but not burning. [20110501]

Cask handpull at William IV. Black, thin tan head. It’s sweet. Bit of heat. It’s hot, sweet and syrupy. I love that. It’s sweet with a touch of liquorice. Nto awful I like the molasses. It’s good, way too sweet, but I ended up liking it.

4th September 2010. Brodies Beer Fest at their Brewpub - King William IV in Leyton.
Opaque oily black beer with no head. Dry soft palate. Very sugary sweet dark malt with subtle notes of port and brandy. Some coca cola in there as well. A little alcoholic warmth coming through to the sweet semi dry finish. A real sticky beer this. Thoroughly enjoyed it and was glad to see many of the locals doing the same. Englands strongest ever beer? Also UKs strongest ever naturally fermented beer?
