Roasty, malty beer with coffee. Rather well made but perhaps lacking in the character needed to make it really good.

There is a good mouthfeel in this one with a fine after taste of malt and caramel. Certainly better than a number of cask beers around. fiulijn (7200), Como; Lausanne (CH); Malmö (SWE), Italy
