On tap @ BrewDog, Soho. This one has a pretty deep dark brown colored body, not too much of a head on the top, what's there is small beige and sidesticking. Mild aroma. A hint of licorice, some nutty sweetness and darker types of malts. Difficulties getting anything else in the aroma really, but it tastes a lot! Really spiced. Reminds me of pumpkin and rye bread. Pumpernickel and a little cinnamon mixed with coconut curry. It's mild oily in the mouth and it's just below average on the carbonation. Like the spiced element here but having difficulties identifying the spiced used. Well, at least setting names on them. Long long tail. 23.10.2016

Keg at BD Camden, 24/10/16. Light black with a decent tan cap. Nose is dark chocolate, coconut rub, light charr, spice, roast malt. Taste comprises dark chocolate Bounty Bar, spice, dark fruit tang, cocoa powder, roast malts. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Decent enough easy drinking stout ...a little one trick but does what is says on the tin.
