Cask at Smithfield, Derby. Pours almost black with a small beige head with a maroon tinge. Aroma is mainly roasted malts, but with some hints of cola. In the mouth it is somewhat vsweet and has a rather cloying texture. Malts again dominate the flavour, but with some crunchy beets, porridge, dandelion and burdock and hints of treacle. Finish has a little bitterness. Very nice, but one to be sipped slowly !
