Bomber from Malt and Vine. Pours quite black with a very dark tan head. Aroma is strongly chocolate over very toasted malt. It smells smooth. Medium body with frothy carbonation. Flavor is chocolate, smooth burnt malt. It finishes quite bitter. Wonderful stuff. Perhaps the pumpkin accounts for the smoothness.

Dark brown colour. Coffee roast nose with light chocolate notes. Milk chocolate character with late roast and a hint of cinnamon, just like Mexican chocolate.
