Chelmsford Winter Beer Festival in KEGS! Clear dark brown beer, little pale tan suddy head. Palate is light and a little dry. Tangy sweetness under slightly watery malt. Turns sweeter with mild candy fruits. Mild minerals. Light semi dry finish. Not bad, interesting flavours but the body is somewhat hollow.

Bottle thanks to Leighton at his pre-xmas extravaganza. It pours very dark brown, with a thin tan film. The nose is sweet fruit, sour tang, roasted malt and wood. The taste is caramel, big sour tang, dark chocolate, dark dried fruit (currants, raisin etc), roasted malt and wood, with a dry finish. Medium body and low carbonation. Not great.

Bottle at home in London. Aged about a year. Pours dark brown with a thick, foamy beige head. Rich dark malt aroma with some roast and dark chocolate. Medium sweet flavor, light roasted malts, slight tang, some ash. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Fairly thin to finish, mild sweetness, light burnt earth bitterness, tangy dark malts, some ashy wood. Nothing special here.
