Wellington’s most decorated beer is a dark traditional ale with a rich bouquet, matured slowly to deliver exceptional smoothness and balance.

L: opaque dark brown
S: loads of milk chocolate! with a bit of root beer
T: very well-balanced and long lasting... nice long chocolatey (but not fake chocolate!) finish... not sweet at all ... not a really big or overly complex flavour but very nice. No noticeable hop bitterness.
F: medium bodied
O: I really like this beer. The perfect session beer to linger over pint after pint. The chocolatey characteristics are subtle and certainly don't detract from having another. Would love to taste this cask-conditioned or on nitro.
