Very dark mahogany, almost opaque, thin off white head. Excellent roasty malt with some equally good fruity notes. Faint but bright and entertaining hoppage on top. The malt is lovely and chewy and the burnt liquorice and light spicy notes in the finish are glorious. Nice and full in the mouth. Jolly good indeed. Rodders (123), Norwich, Norfolk, England
