Cask at Lych Gate, Wolverhampton. Pours a (very) dark reddish-brown with a small foamy tan head. There’s roasted malts and raisins in the aroma. In the mouth it is mostly sweet but with quite a bit of bitterness too. The flavour is quite simple but with plenty of depth to it. Chocolate is the mainstay but also roast malts and dried fruits, with hints of vanilla coming later. Finish is somewhat fruity. This is decent.
