Dark mahogany-brown, rich aromas of toffee, treacle, mocha coffee, vinous fruit and chocolate. On the palate there is rich fruitcake, a hint of rum, more Mocha coffee, herbal hoppiness and vinous fruit. The bittersweet finish is smooth, complex and rich but not cloying. Brewed with a mix of Pale, Chocolate and Crystal malts, and hopped with Goldings, Challenger and Brewers Gold.
