Hand-pulled pint in my local Wetherspoons on 26 Apr 2013.

Pours a lovely dark brown/deep ruby red: a creamy head sets it off nicely. Lacing clung to the glass better than sweat on a steamy window, and with a better odour!

I like it when Salopian brew their darker beers (as Wilf, the owner knows): this was just up my street. Trouble is (for me anyway) the golden brews fly out the brewery door and his darker, maltier beers take some shifting at times: other Shropshire brewers are telling me the same thing and only brew golden beers currently.

Roasted/toasted/slightly burnt molasses fill the nose and taste buds. The rich yet dry body seems to ooze dark berry flavours and they in turn enhance the coffee and chocolate traces that appear towards the end of each sip.
