Bottle from Hop Burns and Black, enjoyed watching Spain v Austria. Pours deep jet black with a beautiful brown head. Nose of prune, malt, treacle, coffee. Flavour is medium-big sweetness with a well-balanced roast bitterness. Gentle boozy warmth. Full bodied, creamy with a gentle pickle, slight astringency mixed with booze on the finish. A thing of beauty, ever reliable and one of my all time favourites.

Bottle and keg. Black body with a thick tan head that holds forever. Good lacing. Aroma of chocolate mousse, cappuccino, ash, blackcurrant, Marmite, wood and a hint of smoke. Flavour of leather, dark chocolate, coffee, ash, roasted malt, prunes and cocoa powder. Dry finish. Medium body with a creamy texture. Soft fizz. Rich and intense - this is everything I look for in a Stout. One of the tastiest (and best value) dark beers out there.
