Keg at Craft Beer Co Covent Garden. Opaque cola brown.. MM thin band of a beige head. Aroma combines dark dough, molasses and dark chocolate with a boozy edge. Sweeter but also sour berries moreso into the finish. Thick. Oily. Soft carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Nice.

Can at home picked up from Premier hop. A dark mahogany brown coloured pour with a lasting loose light tan head. Aroma is light spice, wood, cedar, fragrant wood, cakey malts. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, wood tannin, cocoa, spicy wood, cedar, little thin. Quite odd. Palate is semi sweet, light oil, little thin, Jamaica cake. Mellow carbonation.. Good fun, but a little bit odd.

330ml can. Pours black with a tan head. Aroma of milk chocolate, caramel. Taste is sweet, milk chocolate, caramel, mild coffee, mild wood spice, moderate bitterness. Medium bodied, smooth.
Adding lactose to dark chocolate makes it milk chocolate. So how is this any different from the actual Milk variant? Come on Siren, you're better than this. Had these one after the other so can confirm they taste identical, this one perhaps slightly less sweet.

Can at home, 22nd November 25. Pours black and thick. Aroma is dark chocolate, taste is rich, dark chocolate, light spice, bitter and never runs too sweet - excellent from Siren, who are a bit homogeneous with their Pales these days
