Common descriptors are
The latest addition to the brewery’s line-up is our Half Moon Stout. It is at 5.5% alcohol and is based on a old porter recipe described as brave, proud or "Stout". A one hour mash of pale, crystal, chocolate and wheat malts, and a large portion of roasted barley yield this dark, full-bodied stout with a heavy aroma of fresh roasted coffee. The mild Fuggles hops balances the bitterness. It is smooth and has a long lasting creamy head - an outstanding stout.
