Abv: 4.5% Type: Seasonal beer Bottle size: 500ml Website: www.stonehengeales.co.uk Country: England Brewery : Stonehenge Ales
Price:  Reviewed in: Beers of the World Issue 3
Nose : Massive attack of pear drops, drowning out chocolaty malt.
Palate : Bitter with more estery, pear drop flavours to the fore. Sweet, chocolaty malt behind. Faint blackcurrant fruitiness.
Finish : Bitter and drying. Fairly astringent, in fact. Chocolate/malt lingers softly.
Comments : A bronze beer that would be better if the chocolate flavours could fight their way through the dominant esters and bitterness.
Score : 6.75
