Wonderful, can drink it all night as it is only 3.4%
Re-rate cask handpull at Yew Tree Inn Barfrestone. Even better than before. Excellent choc/coffee aroma but just gorgeously mild. Body is satisfying and the finish is long and exciting. So much flavour for a beer so weak ante (2956), Stockholm, Sweden
