Bottle from Malt & Vine. Pours dark ruddy copper with a multifinger light tan head. Darkish roasted malt aromas. Medium plus body with mildly frothy carbonation. Flavor is reddish roasted caramel with something like Tettnang hop bitter - plus some floral aspects. Smooth and rather mellow. Excellent ale.

Cask at the Claret Free House in Croydon on 21/11/2009. Copper coloured with whitish head. Spicy and hoppy with a lot of fruit and the flavour of a sweet variety of Orval. A zingy mouthfeel and a long hoppy finish.

Bottle. Clear dark orange, with little head. Little aroma, but not pleasant. Light body with medium carbonation. Vegetably foretaste with little aftertaste. Not good, but drinkable with a curry.

500ml bottle from Trafalgar Wines, Brighton. You see this is really good and shows that bottles really can vary from batch to batch. A bit cola-ish in the mouth perhaps, but the choccy coffee charcoal is lovely. Only slightly sour on the aroma, but mostly of a coffee liquer to be honest. Good smoothness in mouth. And then this very good coffee liquer finish. A bit like coffee cake icing. Pretty good my friends. Really drinkable and one of Hepworthโs better beers i thought. Good drinkability and certainly something that I would drink again. Rather amazing coffee to be honest. Not big in your face stuff, but certainly very good. A Big Gay Al, super.
