North Cotswold Honey Stout

Brewed by North Cotswold
Style: Stout
Moreton-in-Marsh, England

Cask conditioned at The Woolpack, Banbury, Oxon. Black with cream head. Looked good but in reality this is a very odd beer, there is a sweet and sour thing going on that works with Chinese cookery but not in beer. There is a honeyed, thickish sweetness, reminiscent of a golden beer, then there is a tart, bitterish, chewey body with a touch of coffee husk. Not one of my favourites.
