Dark ale with a slight red glow. Sweet tasting with winter fruits in the aroma for a suitable winter ale. Has a mild toffee flavouring and easy to drink.

Near black beer, orange-amber reflections; creamy, near solid dark beige head. Sweet molasses, liquorice, and a bit of chocolate. Roasted grains, impression of black cacao powder, developping more and more to chocolate. Light but NOT empty; slickness, not unremindful of water-based chocolatemilk, grist-y. Not a bad one! this is an interesting dark British ale, well-worth trying.
