I'm not a fan, it has that fake cocoa flavour which is just a bit icky and sickly. I had it on cask after a beer festival once and remember tasting nothing else for about three days. Memorable but not in the best way... Interestingly, the same flavour fills Southern Tier's Mocha, but there's something wonderfully fun about that beer which doesn't work in Chocolate Tom.<br /><br />I've never been impressed with bottled Old Tom. It can be pretty tasty on cask though.Mark Dredgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11421095862178324693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12501248.post-59045857566160256122010-03-01T09:12:54.396+00:002010-03-01T09:12:54.396+00:00Cheers T.

It is exactly the same beer. I heard it from the mouth of Head Brewer Chris Hellin only two weeks ago.<br /><br />Ginger Tom is a 70/30 blend of Old Tom and Fentiman's Ginger Beer, which Robinsons also brew.Tandlemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06804499573827044693noreply@blogger.com
