On draft, imperial pint glass, at the brewpub.
Clear medium brown color, head that fades. Malty aroma. Bready caramel flavor, fruity aftertaste. Medium bodied.

A pleasant dark and hazy nut brown ale from the cask.
The head is more predominant than in the Bitters from Ship Inn; but doesn't stick around long and leaves no lacing. The aroma is nutty, very caramel malt, sweet toffee and dense with molasses.
The taste is nearly identical to the aroma. It is overall a sweet molasses infused beer with just a bit of bitterness to balance it out.
It drinks very easily and the mouthfeel is slightly soapy and thick.
One of the better beers at Ship Inn and worth coming out for if you want something a little more complex (but not much) than their Bitter or Mild.

The Ship Inn- Dark Charger Ale
A- Hazy unfiltered brown with a thick foamy head. Good head retention and lacing.
S- Lightly burnt malt with a malt vinegar twang.
T- Roasted crystal malt with a buttery caramel flavor. Slightly nutty, walnuts and hazelnuts come to mind.
M- Velvety smooth and creamy. Very buttery with a dry finish.
Overall- a good session beer that everyone was ordering up. Could become cloying after a few though.
