18/7/2019. Bottle shared at the South West tour bottle share. Bought at The Eternal Optimist, Swindon. Gusher. Pours dark brown with a lasting creamy beige head. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, dark and dried fruit, biscuit and black treacle. Moderate sweetness and medium roasted bitterness. Medium body, slight creamy texture, but off-putting fizzy carbonation. Decent apart from that.
