Strong Ale, 5.1%
Comments: A dark strong ale, with some vague dark malt chacteristics. Fine near-white head and good retention. Initial flavour is quite sweet, with malty flavours dominating. A touch of bittering hop, but not much aroma, comes in and disappears reasonably quickly. Aftertaste is mainly driven by the use of dark malts, giving a bitter and reasonably clean finish. Initially I found this a bit sweet, however it grew on me, and I’d be happy to have it again.
Overall score: 6.5/10
