"A deep chestnut brown beer with a rich near-white head and the aroma of fresh roasted coffee. A wonderfully complex palate with hints of coffee, bananas and liquorice leading to a classic Golding hop finish."

A Mes rate: Gravicask at GBBF. Dark amber with a thick bubbly off white head. Lovely coffee malt nose. Flavour is similar but not quite so pleasing. Bitterish finish. Slightly watery mouth feel but still ok. Much better than the bottled version.
