Won this can on RateBeer, cheers Dave. Shared it with friends on 9th July 2018 at the Shrewsbury Beer Exchange Group meeting in Chez Sophie. Very dark brown body, beige head. Roasted and toasted malts in the nose, the taste has coffee, chocolate and toffee flavours alongside a slight spicy note or two. Interesting.

Can @ monthly tasting, Chez Sophie, July 18, courtesy of Jeremy. Pours a deep hazed brown, pale tan head. Aroma is roasty, nutty chocolate malt. Taste is roasted grain, light espresso, chocolate, earthy pine hints, good layered flavours. Nice Black IPA.

Can split at Bodney Heights, thanks to Dave, 22/02/18. Light black with a decent tan head ... lively pour. Nose is pine needle, treacle toffee, dusty hops, light roast, spice. Taste comprises toffee, hint of cocoa, red berry tang, charr, earthy hops, mellow tropicana, brown bread. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with dusty hop bitterness. Decent enough CDA.

Can shared in Hackney - cheers to Dave. Pours rich brown with a dense, frothy tan head. Toasted pine in the nose, cocoa, light roast. Light-medium sweet flavour with sturdy roast, bitter cocoa, ash, torched pine. Medium bodied, lightly oily, with fine carbonation. Good balance in the finish, more ash, orange peel, baking cocoa, pine. Solid.
