12 oz. can from HyVee, Nov '19, Best by 2/26/20. Nicely chilled after a hot summer day. Dark, but not black stout pour, that pulls a nice parfait-like brown head. Smell leads with alcohol. A little heady, but not to excess. A bit of chocolate in the nose as well. Taste is roasty stout, with licorice following in. Sambucca impression grows further down the glass. Slight note of cherry and vanilla. I find the licorice note is a bit much, but maybe others can dig it. My day-before-birthday beer.

Can courtesy of Craig (cheers Craig!) consumed in a field at Fairports Annual Reunion Festival, Cropredy Friday 12th August 2016 Black with a tan head, big malty beer a little meaty, chewy, lots of a touch of liquorice a touch chocolate notes. Much like the Oedipus before this also has black treacle, it’s a big beer, but quite smooth. There is a hoppy presence, I like this a lot. A7 A4 T8 P5 Ov16 4.0
