Cask, shared with Finn at Falcon, Battersea. Dotted spots on the glass. A few patches on the surface of a mahogany coloured body. Chocolate and caramel nose with Yule tide spices. Chocolate flavour joined by anise and nutmeg leading to a mid sweet ending. Fair Yule tide feel (London 29.11.2015).

Half pint from cask at Grape and Grain, Crystal Palace. Shared with Finn. Filmy layer remaining over a deep dark brown body. Aroma of earth and bready malts. Smooth flavours from the black malts with moments of cocoa and chocolate. Mid-sweet malty ending with a light roasted touch. Fine bodied. Some drinking pleasure in this one (Greater London 28.11.2015).
