From Fosse. Clear ruby, dirty nicotine foam. Imperial Leather rolled in cheap coffee granules aroma; a snort of barrel, butter biscuits- pretty good. Slick and soapy with a pleasant, iron-dusted roastedness; some late copper, biscuit and plum. Very distinct burnt, buttered wood. Kept me interested.

3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
50cl bottle. Well this is certainly bottle conditioned, with an explosive openning and lots of billowing, caramel coloured foam. Neverless it pours crystal clear with a light magohany colour with a ruby tint - looking absolutely great.The aroma has caramel and touch of yeast; it’s soft in the mouth, with a rich treacly flavour, rather thin - but that’s to be expected; then a lasting caramel finish. The best bottled mild I’ve come across.
