23/1/2021. Fresh crowler shared at the first Ipswich Lockdown 3.0 virtual bottle share. From Tom's Tap & Brewhouse, Crewe. Pours very dark brown with a purple tint and a small off-white to beige head. Aroma doesn't really deliver the rum'n'raisin promised. Moderate sweetness, light roasted bitterness. Light bodied, soft carbonation. As a milk stout it's fine but I like rum'n'raisin but didn't really get much from this one.
