Cask ale, half-pint after breakfast at Coronet (JDW). Remaining beige head, deep dark brownish body, laces fine. Promising moments of liquorice and ripe citrus on the nose. Well blended taste character with herbal hops, liquorice, caramel, and coffee. Nicely roasted bitterness to the ending. Medium bodied. Pleasing. (London, 07.12.2023).
