I'm sorry HOPMONSTER send me your details in PM and I'll send you a bottle.

Looks like I'm sending three bottles.

Cheers

Just so people know, you offered I didn't ask.

This was a win a bottle comp, no a bottle swap. But since you were so kind I couldn't refuse ;-)

Very sorry yours turned up a soggy mess LarryF

Took a mini keg of this round to a friend's house warming party. Bloody dissapointed. The rubber seems to have perished and the beer tasted old and stale. But still Carbed which was weird. Think I will chuck the keg as it smells musty inside. Got to pop the other one now to see if it's worth salvaging

Just drinking this now. Lovely Brum. I really like the subtle smokeyness behind the bitter roasty chocolate malt. Cheers!

Glad you liked it. The last easy keg of this had to be poured down the drain. The rubber bung had perished and the beer had gone off :-(
