Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up from HOTM. Pours rich brown with a tight, creamy khaki head. Light sweet flavour with nice toasted dark malts, leather, earth, cocoa, aged berries. Light bodied with massaging carbonation. Balanced finish, rounded, more cocoa accents, roast, earth, toast. Great stuff.

Bottle - a really nice hybrid of dry Irish and Belgian export stout - dry, roasty, moderately bitter - bright fruitiness through the middle, followed by bakers chocolate and coffee - long, bitter chocolate finish - though strongly bitter on the end, it never becomes abrasive or overly acidic - it’s nice.

Bottle from Drinks Vanuxeem, Ploegsteert, Belgium. Pours black with a thinnish creamy beige head. Aromas of roasted malts, ash, chocolate and liquorice. Taste has more of the dark roasted malts, dark chocolate and some coffee and hints of dark fruits. Roasty chocolatey finish. Medium body, low carbonation and smooth mouthfeel. Very good stout that packs plenty of flavour for the 5% abv. Nice!

Dark black pour with a small white/tan head. Aromas of cocoa/dark choclate and milk/cream. Taste of roasted coffee and cocoa, some milk and a nice, slightly spicy finish. Very decent stout. Well done for being organic, too

It is okay for the style. Essentially a worse version of the classics. On nitro GIST brussels
