Unique

I don't really tick much nowadays. Still enjoy a decent beer just as much, along with the community that Ratebeer originally built. I've not moved to that popular app and never will - It's become a monopoly which is having too much influence on today's craft beer scene.

How could I resist trying this when I saw it on tap? Surprisingly it’s quite a lower ABV than standard Lion Stout. It’s also more dark amber brown as opposed to dark and stouty. When you take a sniff the barrel shouts at you though. Massive oak, a little alcohol and booze. Toffee and sweet malt. A little butterscotch. Best not to go into this with their normal stout as a reference point. It’s a completely different beer but I kinda like it for what it is.

Ok let’s get this straight out of the way. The picture is right, it’s not blond. Aroma of malt, light red and dark fruits, light caramel, a touch of yeast. It’s not bad, but it’s not what it says it is.

Flight from draft at Cheers. Hazy golden with an aroma of grain, biscuit and malt. Light to moderate sweet and light bitter.
