Cask at Moon under Water, Wolverhampton. Pours almost black with a sizeable foamy cream head. Malts and biscuits in the aroma. Dark fruits are the mainstay in the mouth, along with liquorice and aniseed. Texture is somewhat watery and the finish is slightly sweet. OK – may need a rerate as was served too cold.
