A smooth, very dark, velvety bitter made with finest Maris Otter malted barley along with copious quantities of crystal and chocolate malts. A session beer with a flavour to savour.

Cask at 37th Fleetwood Beer & Cider Festival. Shared with Finn. Beige head, deep ruby-black body, dotted spots on the glass. Dark doughy aroma, hints of herbal hops. Mid-dry taste of almond and chocolate malts. Moments of roasted bitterness to the finish. Fair enough. (07.02.2019).

Cask gravity at Firkin Alehouse Folkestone. Black beer no real head. Liquorice and malty dark beer. Some dryness on the finish. Pleasant enough winter beer.
