Bottle from Keen’s cracking bottle bar at Pigs Ear. Very dark brown beer, no head. Zero carbonation. Smooth palate. Bananas and cream, dark chocolate and a trace of marmite. Fruit salad sweets. Finishes semi dry. Tasty unusual beer but must be related to ’Silent Knight’ in some way?

Bottle. Pours cloudy amber with faint film. Wheat, German yeast aroma. Some hard bread. Lightly sweet, yeasty, some banana, orange and clove. Light bodied with very soft carbonation. Bready, yeasty finish, with some very light citrusy bitters. Like no bitter I’ve ever had. Interesting.
