500ml bottle. Pours black. Toast, touch of parmesan, orange peel, grapefruit, touch of dankness. Nothing particularly exciting.

Level 42 Bottleshare. Thanks to Big Dave for the long haul. Almost clear brown beer, tidy pale tan head. Palate is light, semi dry and modest carbonation. Smooth dark malts, trace of dark chocolate. Little dark malt cream. Modest ripe fruits. Mild pine, marmalade and hop spice. Smooth semi dry finish. Nicely fruity and smooth.

Bottle thanks to Dave. It pours dark brown with a small off-white head. The aroma is roasted malt, soapy citrus, charred pine, dried fruits and coffee grounds. The taste is smooth upfront, bitter, charred pine, peppery spice, malt loaf, earth, coffee grounds and dull soap with a lingering bitter roast finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Actually not bad.

Taste comprises light cocoa, hop dusting, light pine trace, toffee, brown bread. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close dashed with leafy hop bitterness. Ok CDA but not top draw.
