Cask @ Beer Engine, Sheffield. Golden with a strength thatโs hidden by only a light but characterful tropical fruitiness.

On cask at Sheaf View, Heeley - Deep ruby black body, thick off white lacing head. Nose is heavy in the choccy department, some coffee hints, and a bit of roast nuts too. Taste is helped by a smooth mouthfeel, a bit of lactose creaminess, again the chocolate dominates.
Retried in 2025, can from Mitchell Wines Meadowhead.

Huddersfield Beer Festival 2016, Huddersfield. Stout with full notes lost due to catastrophic failure of the Ratebeer App wiping this and many other reviews around this time.
