We have combined 11 malts in this stout in order to deliver flavours of digestive caramel biscuits, peanuts, coffee, chocolate, raisins and cherries. Thick and creamy with a rolling sweet finish, this stout drinks bigger than it is.

On keg at Small Bar, Bristol. Pours black with a tan head. Aroma: roasted malts, dark chocolate, toffee, dark fruits, hint of coffee. Taste: light sweet, light bitter, cocoa, watery coffee, caramel. Medium body. Soft carb. Smooth mouthfeel. Dry-ish finish. One of only two (?) dark beers Verdant have brewed, a historic rating from Feb 2017. Passage of time suggests they should concentrate on pale & murky beers

Keg at The Small Bar, Bristol, Saturday 4th February 2017 Dark brown with a thin light beige head. Tangy porter with caramel, a little watery coffee and some dark fruits tussling with a light but steady hoppy bitterness. Soft carbonation, it’s good but it’s another porter that I have had lately that fails to really excite. A7 A3 T7 P3 Ov14 3.4
