I opened this bottle and
whoa nelly
a bit lively
as foamy ale surged out

poured witha rich dark chestnut brown body and a thick tan head that soon disappeared to wispy clouds but can be summoned with a swirl of the glass.

Nice smell of malt and toffee and brown sugar all there just in an elusive aroma, had to stick my nose right in there.

Nice taste dark and brooding on the tongue nice roasts and charcoal flavours coming through slight fruity hints but nothing sweet finished with a big malty kick and hoppy edges.

Really lively carbonation and a bit of a flimsy mouthfeel don't detract from a solid good beer.
