leaparsons (6320) - Leicester, Leicestershire, ENGLAND - APR 6, 2004
Leicester Beer Fest. Pitch black in colour with a small off-white head. Aromas are earthy, licourice and chocolate with roast malts. Flavours have the same characteristics as the aroma, with extra licourice, fruity tang and a smooth hoppy finish. Only two casks of this were produced but look out for the bottles.
