EST: 1845
QUANTITY: 500ml
ALCOHOL: 6.3%
Vol
COLOUR:
Dark Amber
OPINION: Very full flavoured with a strong malty (almost
liquorice) aftertaste. Initialy harsh, but mellows by the end of
the bottle.
Not one of my favourites,
but if you like a strong flavoured beer, this may be for you. You
could also try 6X Export which
is a very similar beer.
