JULY 2024.
44 cl can (€5/€5.50 from the pub fridge).
It is produced with Maris Otter (of the Thomas Fawcett & Sons brand located in Castleford, West Yorkshire since 1780) as the base malt, to which abundant barley flakes have been added as well as other (classic) dark malts such as Roasted, Chocolate and Pale Chocolate (also from the Fawcett brand) and malted oats. The yeast is also a classic of English origin, as are the hops chosen to remain faithful to the British tradition: East Kent Goldings and Fuggle.
Drink after letting it rest for 7/8 minutes. out of the fridge.
Poured (in multiple times) it is black with abundant and creamy beige foam acting as a cap.
The aromas are the classic ones: roasting and toasted cereals first, then more chocolatey notes and even light notes of ash.
In the mouth, beer with a classic taste, far from modernity and its excesses at times: light body and malty, without however being silky, mild carbonation but present in the background, with that carbon nitrogen which makes the whole drink more "creamy", but at the same time slim and light.
In the mouth the predominant taste is that of roasted coffee, with aftertastes of dark chocolate and underlying cereals which quickly end with a soft finish (technical term: "smooth"), with just a single hint of light bitterness which fades into a reference to the ash and toasted cereals.
Chocolate aftertaste that remains light on the palate, while the roasting and taste of toasted cereals remains on the tongue, always in a very veiled manner and not at all intrusive or decisive, encouraging a quick subsequent sip.
Very faithful to the classic British style of reference.
