A difficult one to find as is out of production. This 2005 bottle was aquired on ebay.
A lovely strong ale. with a very complex taste. A bit like drinking a christmas cake full of fruit and heavey tones. Sweet with a slight smokey flavour. This bottle was shared. Not a drink to have too frequently. Well worth getting hold of before there all gone.

Has the aroma of smokey bacon and tastes like it to. Smokey but not too overpowering but perhaps a more acquired taste. Definitely the most unusual beer.
