Black beer, decent head. Malty aroma with a little chocolate. Flavour has toasty malt, chocolate, some vanilla. Simple flavours but a decent heft to it for the strength and a nice body. Very decent indeed.

On cask at Indie Scotland. Appearance - clear copper. Proportionate off white head. Nose - caramel and honeycomb. Taste - honeycomb again, malt loaf, ginger biscuit. Palate - medium bodied, sweet and creamy. Overall - doesn't taste like a lager, bit not unpleasant.
