Oldham Beer Festival 2024. Black in colour, has lots of caramels with a very tasty dark malt infusion. Autumnal and similar to a Cadbury's Crunchie Bar confectionery. Quite rich

Can. Mitchellโs Wines. Packaged August Ffs. Also label states hops are magnum centennial cascade and simcoe. No idea. Anyway. Murked up dark gold. Messy white foam. Decent fruity hoppage. Sweet grain backdrop. Lean bitterness. Decent enough for its four months on a fridge shelf.
