Bottle conditioned, 500ml. Chestnut colour with cream head. Heavily malted beer with a harsh, sharp spicey note in the body. A little boiled caramel, toffee without being sweet and a late dark roasted flavour. It’s fine though a little short.

Booring, but not as bad as it can sound, it was a little tasty. With a touch of butter. Foam some interesting.
