Bottle from Cromford Mills Cheese Shop, Cromford, near Matlock. New brewery for me. Dark brown to black with a thin tan head. Chocolatey with a mild roasty note. A tiny hint of mandarin in the finish. Fortunately no plague in my bottle. It's a tad thin for the strength, and it certainly needs a bit more orange added, but it's still pleasant and very drinkable.
