Dark
A mild & chocolatey dark beer
Description
A true classic, brewed since the 1920s.
This treacle-coloured ale is crafted with chocolate malts, giving it a smooth, easy-drinking character and a distinctive creamy head. Its deep, intense flavour features hints of liquorice and freshly ground coffee, making it a perfect companion to traditional chocolate desserts.
Rich. Smooth. Timelessly Welsh.
