Bottle shared in CA - cheers! Pours deep brown with a frothy, beige cap. The nose gives off hard, ashy roast and dry cocoa. Light sweet flavour with assertive scorched earth bitterness, more ash, baking cocoa, woody dryness. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Hard ashy roast continues in the finish, with more bitter earth and chocolate. A good working man’s stout.
