Rich red, thin head. Very malty sweet moderately hoppy aroma. Taste covers the tongue, big bold malty body with rich roasty edges join a hoppy middle taste, and the bitterness of the burntness and the hops fight it out for the finish. Aroma gains coffee-ice-cream component later. leaparsons (4725), Leicester, Leicestershire, England
