Grainy dough aroma has faint malty notes. Clear, dark brown amber body with a small long-lasting foamy white head. Flavour has hints of chocolate but is mostly malty grain.

Fin (2164), Merton, Oxfordshire, England Oct 16, 2007 Cask at the Woolpack, Banbury, 14-10-07 Plenty of creamy chocolate tastes were my first pick ups from this beer, there was plenty of depth and also good level of fruitiness showing as well.
