Tap at the brewery taproom Loughborough junction. An opaque dark mahogany brown coloured pour with a lasting khaki head. Aroma is semi sweet, earthy robust roast, black currant, liquorice, light salty oyster. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, light tang, black robust earthy roast, liquorice, dark berries, palate is semi sweet, light tang, mellow carbonation. Not bad. Rustic roast and berries linger.
