Bottle, 750 ml from Beergium shared with rest of the guys at grand tasting 11/2016. Pours black with small brown head. Roasted malts, chocolate, mint, true After Eight character. Oily texture, moderate sweetness. Full bodied. Usually not a fan of mint, but this was a nice twist.

Level 42 Bottleshare and no Mark King in sight. Thanks to Leighton. Opaque dark brown beer, good tan head. Palate is smooth and has modest fine carbonation. Smooth dark chocolate laden malts, some chocolate cream. After Eight dark chocolate mint. Smooth finish leaves a nice minty linger. Works well, very drinkable.

Bottle at level 42. Cheers! It pours black with a small tan head. The aroma is sweet, sticky, big mint chocolate vibe,after eight mints, toasted brown sugar,r lasted malt and maltesers. The taste is slick, very sweet, sticky, chewy malt, toffe, millionaires shortbread, after eight mints, chocolate brownie and some warming alcohol with a slick finish. Full body and fine dry, fine carbonation and chewy mouth-feel. A bit sweet and one - dimensional, but not bad.

Bottle shared in London - sourced from Beergium. Pours oily black with a creamy, beige head. The nose has good roast, baking cocoa, cool mint. Medium sweet flavour with York peppermint patties, more baking cocoa, mild earth bitterness. Medium to full bodied with fine to average carbonation. Lightly warming in the finish, more many minty cocoa, baking cocoa, mellow bitterness. Pretty good balance. Big mint character. Really fun stuff.
