440ml can, from Heaton Hops, Stockport. Pours deep amber with a beige cap. Toffee, honey, caramel and toasted bread. A little burnt bread bitterness with the faintest tinge of strawberries & citrus. Dry finish. Very tidy indeed.

Can from Beermoth, Manchester. Black with a hint of dark brown and a thin beige head. Chocolate, brown sugar, a little treacle. Mild toasty notes with a wisp of smoke. Sweet, with a dry finish. I enjoyed it, but it was a tad sugary by the end.
