On gravity at Bristol beer festival, 16/3/3013. Deep gold with a slight white head. Extremely sweet and syrupy, with some burning alcohol, candied fruits and a touch of bitterness in the finish. Really not my type of beer.

Bottle. A colabrown beer with an almost medium and beige head. Aroma is quite mild and simple, roastiness, chalk and hint of fruityness. Taste is dry and roasted, some chalk, hint of coffee. Quite light bodied, low carbonation. Not very convincing beer, too mild and simple.
