Keg at CASC. It pours jet black with a decent beige head. The nose is rich roast, earthy, cocoa, liquorice, black forest gateaux, chocolate ice-cream and coffee. The taste is bitter, rich roast, charry, earthy, toasty, citrus rind, rich coffee, mild acidity, dark chocolate, blackcurrant jam, mild acidity and some peppercorn with a dry, rich roaste finish.
