Art BrewNow Beer6.5An odd flavour of mildly spicy tea, like Lapsang Souchong, but it's not that and it's more peppery. Touch of marmalade leads to a dry finish. Quite enjoyable in a strange way.

Mrs Otto says Your taste buds will have a party with this beer! There's an underlying spiciness and a lovely hoppy kick. Very nice.
