With a lovely dry roasty note from the highly kilned heritage barley, it's not too heavy to weigh you down. From First Steps to Little One - this is another of our beers that beautifully captures a time and place in our family life.

Bottle from Hop Burns and Black. Pours a nice deep chocolate brown with a huge dimple pillowy tan head. Nose is enticing - roasted malts, coffee, dark chocolate, with pine and orange hop notes. Light-medium sweetness and pretty big bitterness that's balanced between roast and hops. Slightly astringent as a result. Mouthfeel is a bit prickly, medium body. Would prefer smoother carbonation. An interesting drink.

Bottle. Beer Stop Dronfield. Murky dark brown pour sits black in the glass. Very nice soppy lasting lacing beige foam. Nose has bitter roast malt. Whiff of ash. Whiff of dark chocolate coffee truffle. Taste is nicely bitter and hop leaning with a brief flicker of chocolate sweetness. Lovely mouthfeel at the lowly ABV. Big hoppy bitter finish. Great stuff.
