    Anyone tried this beer?

    I had on in The Abbot's in Cork the other night.
    What a full on dark toffee, butterscotch, licorice beer.
    The girl behind the bar bet me I couldn't finish a whole one (33cl 9%abv).
    I wasn't sure at first but by the end, I was loving it - will definitely be having another.

    What puzzles me, though, is that this beer was completely flat, with no head whatsoever but when I looked at reviews on line, people spoke about carbonation and a beige head.
    Can anyone shed any light on this?

    I'd recommend trying one - if you like your beer strong, dark, sweet, flat, complex and challenging!

    Its form the brewers of Saxo and I believe the last wood fired kettle in Europe also the do all the milling and mashing manually!

    Sound like you just got a bad bottle, I would bot be surprised if they hand bottle themselves

    Saw another one poured and it was the same.
    Maybe a flat batch?
    Nice anyway
