Cask; Seasonal - Spring and November. Also available in bottles, pasteurised.
A dark ruby beer with a rich flavour and spicy finish. The hop grist adds a hint of citrus to complement the roasted malt character. 'Dark, Delicious and Delectable'

[1] Review by Joeh from London, United Kingdom who has tried this beer once. (5/23/2006 11:56:02 AM)
"Cask Conditioned at The Falcon (JDW), High Wycombe. Black with a lively white head. Aroma is roasted malt and alcohol. To taste Roasted malt, sugar and fruit upfront with a dry finish leading to an odd sour aftertaste. Reminds me a bit of paint, ash tray and pear drops. I’m not entirely convinced this was supposed to taste like this. Left over cask from Winter?"
