Bottle (purchased at Delirium Rio), consumed at Chriso’s Easter tasting 2012. It pours deep amber, with a decent beige head. The nose is toffee, hot cross bun, caramel, Horlicks and beef jerky. The taste is cola, toffee, plum, prune, grape, chocolate, spice, sugar and caramel, with a dry, fruity finish. Alcohol is well hidden. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Not bad, but perhaps a bit too sweet.
