Mint Chocolypse from Downton Brewery

5.9/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 5 Texture 6 Overall 5.5
Gravity dispense at Pigs Ear ’15, 04/12/15. Mahogany brown with a decent beige covering. Nose is mint chocolate chip, dark malts, cocoa rub, light menthol. Taste comprises mint and pea soup, a little washed through, faint chocolate, spice. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, drying close. So so, a touch harsh and disjointed.

500 ml bottle as Downtown Dark Delight, extra strong bitter. Clear, deep bronze golden-brown body with an average sized off-white head. Aroma is malt, caramel, toast, biscuit and some dry fruit. Flavor is medium sweet, dark, mild roasted malt, toast, caramel, dry fruit and moderate in aftertaste. Quite balanced body and average aftertaste. Decent version of a British strong bitter, not more nor less.
