Half-Pint on Cask from The New Inn brewery pub:
Dark, chestnut brown with a thin and foamy, slightly off-white coloured head that is about half a centimetre talland leaves some lacing on the glass.

Dark malts and some strong chocolate start things off, followed by some background orange although this is deinitely noticeable along with some faint alcohol and a little bit of roasted barely with some sweetness.

Medium strength bitters & chocolate open things up, followed by a strong taste of orange as you would expect and some darker cocoa plus a little coffee. Quite a dark beer but nothing overpowering. There is a generally rich taste and hints of sweetness throughout with some roasted malts and barely too.

Rich & quite sweet with low carbonation and a creamy, full body that is very smooth and highly drinkable.

Dark, rich & chocolaty with a strong orange presence as the name would suggest and certainly a lot more flavour than I'm accustomed to with cask ales; this is probably helped by the fairly high abv. for such a style of beer.
