16/10/2022. Bottle from Dan Murphy’s. Pours very dark brown with a small frothy beige head. Aroma of liquorice, roasted malt, chocolate, dried fruits, treacle. Moderate sweetness and medium roasted bitterness. Moderate body, slightly oily, quite fizzy.

Bottle at Hamer Hall before Flaming Lips concert. Nutty, coffee nose. Roasty chocolate with nice bitter aftertaste. Delighted to find this at a fancy ass music venue.

Bottle from Dan Murphy’s, Fairfield, Melbourne. Poured a clear dark brown colour with a thin broken off white head. The aroma is roasty, light caramel malt, burnt treacle, liqouirce. The flavour is moderate liquorice bitter, with a moderately smooth, roasty, liqouirce, light dry charcoal, hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.

(Bottle) Pours very dark brown - clear with ruby highlights when held to light - and a fair tan head. Pleasant, gentle aroma - roast malt, notes of vanilla. Medium body, good bright carbonation. Taste is good but rather thin. Sweet dark malts have a cola character, albeit richer and more complex. Very drinkable.

330ml bottle into pint glass. ’Serve at cellar temperature’ OK, I don’t have a cellar but it’s 30 degrees Celsius inside today, so 10 minutes in the freezer. Sweet dark chocolate nose. Totally impenetrable black beer with large solid tan head. Body is surprisingly light, even spritzy on the tongue. Ending with bitter cocoa. Slightly lingering. A bit light on for my taste but OK.

There’s a lovely roasty aroma of chocolate, coffee, biscuits and a little liqueur. The taste is more hoppy than expected, with some grapefruit under the taste of coffee beans and smoke. Pleasant, but not a ripper.

From a 330ml bottle on 18/7/2012. Pours a very dark brown with a medium head. Has a slight chocolate malt aroma. Flavour wise, it’s got a good dose of chocolate and caramel malt, with sweetness well balanced against the roasty bitterness. Just a really solid, enjoyable stout. Comes across bigger than 4.9%.

Pours black with brown/ruby highlights and a large lasting head.Nose shows lots of chocolate, caramel and nutty malt. Nice roasty character.In the way of flavours it’s coffee rather than chocolate. Seems pretty light on, could us some more malt in there to flesh things out a bit.Too much carbonation, body is lacking.
