Nose : Caramel, chocolate and a little tart cherry.
Palate : Smooth, chocolaty malt overlaid by interesting but subtle cherry flavours. Hops increasingly make their presence felt and there’s more soft caramel. Just a hint of tartness provides a constant bite.
Finish : Dry, grainy and tasting of bitter chocolate. Some gentle, lingering fruit, with hops building all the time.
Comments : An interesting concoction that would be good with a creamy pudding, as long as it’s not too sweet. The samples tried were well over carbonated (almost explosive!), but hopefully this problem will now have been addressed.
Score : 7.25
