Half pint, very good amount, hand-pulled cask at Chorlton Beer Fest. Good looking with a deep rosewood coloured body topped by a lasting, fawn-coloured head. Aroma of chocolate malt and dark fruits. Taste of dark fruits and mid-sweet dark malts added by a little roastiness. Rounded bitter aftertaste. Pleasant, my best at the beer festival in Chorlton, 06.07.2012.
