Plenty of flotsam on a murky golden coloured body. Zesty aroma. Zesty citrus, honey & a Brett dryness. Lovely.

1/9/2024. Bottle shared by danlo, cheers Ed! Pours close to black with a small bubbly beige head. Aroma is boozy, treacle, woody, rum, molasses, bourbon, roasted malt, dried fruit, chocolate, biscuit, vanilla. Medium sweetness and bitterness with a slight sour edge. Medium to full body, smooth, soft carbonation. Very nice sipper.

Can at home from who knows where. A really lively pour with a massive head. And a huge amount of crud in the bottom of the can. I've not seen anything like that for a long time. The beer was good, not mind blowing, but good. This was enjoyed in the sunshine with the family before moving inside for an excellent lasagne and a very good bottle of Rioja.

750ml bottle from Corks of North Street, Bristol. Pours almost black with beige to tan foam. Aroma: chocolate along with rum, sherry, red wine barrels. On the taste there's a sour streak coming through, quite barrel forward, lots going on. Thin body with light carbonation. Flavours are there, just needs a bit more body.

Can from Beer 52 – drank at home. Another gusher this ! Not particularly effervescent on opening, but despite careful pouring I still got a glass full of froth. Anyway, pours a very dark reddish-brown with a large, frothy, but quite transient cream head and good lacing. The aroma is a mix of malts and chocolate with hints of citrus and floral hops. In the mouth, it is sweet and creamy atthe start though hoppy, tangy, cola vibes are quickly felt. Roasted malts and tropical fruits in the flavour, maybe mango. Some fruity bitterness in the finish. Reasonable – promises much but never quite delivers.
