355ml can - their current seasonal offering, let's see what this particular engine can do!
This beer pours a clear, very dark amber-highlighted brown colour, with four fingers of puffy, finely foamy, and bubbly tan head, which leaves some arc weld pattern lace around the glass as it evenly subsides.
It smells of lightly roasted, bready and doughy caramel malt, a bit of black stone fruitiness, oily bar-top nuts, and very tame earthy, musty, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy cereal malt, some free-range ashiness, chocolate-covered nuts, a hint of cafe-au-lait, overripe plums, and more understated earthy, leafy, and musty hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its palate-coating frothiness, the body a solid medium weight, and generally smooth, with nothing really a cause for concern at this point in the process. It finishes off-dry, the malt holding tight to the lingering reins.
Overall - this comes across as a pleasantly rendered version of the old-school style, nice and malty, with a perfectly integrated 15-proof booze quotient. Another good quaff for this ongoing cold snap/polar vortex/whatever the hell you want to call it.
