Tap Horse & Groom, Chobham. Aroma is spicy with citrus. Also a buttery hint. A slight haze to the pale gold body. Thin creamy white head. Medium bitter. Tart citrus. Malts. Slightly off sour edge. Light bodied. Thin. Slick. Flat-average carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Pity poor stuff - may have been on a while? I can see why they didn't brand this under their faux craft beer label.

Bottle split at the L6 Tasting Krismass Karnage Tasting, thanks to Danny, 19/12/19. Black with a decent tan covering. Nose is chocolate, toffee, dark malts, light coffee, mellow roast. Taste comprises dark fruits, charr, roasted bite, trace of coffee, chocolate cake, leather. Medium plus bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a light kiss of booze. Passable impy stout … not sure the 2 year cupboard ageing has helped!
