Cask, gravity at Brewery Club, Members Night,XT Brewery, Long Crendon, Bucks, Thursday 2nd March 2017. Pours murky brown with a creamy head. Sweet dark candi’ sugar comes off of the nose straight away and actually is present in the mouth. Fruity, tangy but also a little boozy though to be fair drinks easier than a 9.8% beer should. Some bitter liquorice, some boozy fumes come down the nose, kudo’s for XT for really pushing the boat out at the moment with some of these beers, and whilst this is quite good its not totally doing it for me.
