Sample thanks to Grumbo: Poured pitch black with brown edges, not a lot of head bubbles. Aroma is dark fruit, candy, chocolate, light smoke, roasted malts. Taste has a card smoke, roasted malts, coffee, interesting bitter chocolate and fruit mix.

17/01/2020. Cask at the 11th Elysian Winter Beer Festival. In the programme as the original and only recipe Steve was on-hand to confirm this has gone back to its origins. Pours opaque black with a small beige head. Aroma of toffee, dark chocolate, roasted malt, coffee, biscuit, dried fruits, touch of nut and molasses. Medium sweetness and moderate to medium roasted bitterness. Full bodied, slick texture, soft to flat carbonation. Toasted, dark chocolate, moderately bitter, warming finish. Yep, this is good.

Pigs Ear. Opaque black - brown beer. Little pale tan head. Palate is smooth and dry. Rich dark malt, something that tastes like rum. Spice and candy fruits underneath. Little coca cola. Dried fruits - tangy. Semi dry finish. Not bad at all!
