As dark as a Moonless Midnight.
Back in the day on the new moon and before the lighthouse was constructed, sailors braved pitch black conditions rounding Cape Byron. For over 120 years now, the shining light has guided ships safely past the treacherous rocks of the Byron Bay coastline.
Moonless Midnight is also the perfect way to describe the darkness of our seasonal release Stout. Exhibiting notes of coffee, cacao and a hint of tobacco, it leads to a full-bodied sweetness balanced with a roasted malt flavour, finishing with a smooth bitterness. It may take you back to the time when the cape was dark and dangerous, or it might just feel like a nice big hug in a can. Contains lactose (and hugs).

Can. Very dark brown with a 2cm light tan head. Roasty aroma with caramel and mocha. The roast stays ahead of the sweetness so it's rich and smooth but stays bitter on balance. Good, plenty going on for its strength.
