Cask at the Blue Boar, Leicester. Light to mid-gold and clear with a loose white head. Some strong sweaty stone fruit in the aroma, with some gentle citrus notes. Sweet, strong, syrupy taste. Apricot mixing with a grassy character to give an intense impression. Light body with soft carbonation. Struggling to figure out the reason for the low rates as the beer is fantastic.

500ml bottle [courtesy of Grumbo - cheers Graham!]. Jet black colour with minimally late awakening, average to huge, thick, creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, beige head. Sweet-ish, chocolately, dark malty and caramel malty aroma, notes of toffee, couverture, dark caramel, some coffee, spicy whiffs of celery and lovage. Taste is slightly sweet, roasty and chocolately, dark malty, slightly caramel malty, notes of coffee, cocoa, toffee, some dark caramel, minimally ashy interludes. Creamy texture, smooth and soft palate, fine, soft, creamy carbonation. Very nice composition, fairly rich and manifold, harmonious, excellent mouthfeel - exquisite.
