Beer #93 - Robinsons Old Tom

Saturday nights drinking was topped off with a bottle of Robinson’s Old Tom. This is a strong ale at 8.5% ABV and it packs a lot of flavour into a 330ml bottle. It is however very nicely balanced and I found it surprisingly drinkable given the strength. This is heavy on the malts but in the best possible way, they are rich and toasted giving plenty of warm, caramel flavour. There is also plenty of fruitiness and a hint of smokiness going on here too. I really enjoyed this and would definitely drink it again.
