Cask at the gin winter ale festival. Aroma is big liquorice sweet with some wood. Clouded dark brown red with a fleeting loose cream head. Flavour is initially sweet nutty caramel malt with trreacle . then big liquorice and a big drying tartness. Some tanin in the finish and alcohol is present. Not a fan of liquorice.
