Half pint on tap at Local Taphouse, Sydney. Very black beer with thin white head. Nose of caramel, liquorice, cream. Good lacing. Quite sharp carbonation. Tastes like toffee with a dry cocoa finish. Warming alcohol. Really good stout, served too cold (of course).

Bottle shared at Bruce’s pad, big thanks to Josh, 16/01/14. Black with a good sized tan head that retains well. Nose is light roast, hint of booze, dark toffee fudgedom, sweet notes, chocolate. Taste comprises big roasty notes, brown sugars, jammy berry fruit, dark chocolate, dark toffee, oaky BA booze backnotes. Full bodied, fine carbonation, drying finish. Decent enough for the style.

Tasting at Bruce’s pad. Thanks to Josh for another rare opportunity to try Australian craft beer. Opaque dark brown stout with a small pale tan head. Light airy palate, slightly soft. Good tangy dark malts, little dark chocolate and a whisper of coconut. There is a fruity something going on as well. Light dry finish. Comes together well. Tasty.

Bottle courtesy of Josh. It pours near black with a thick tan head. The nose is rich-roast, chocolate, vanilla, coconut, tangy dark fruit and wood. The taste is rich, bitter-sweet, earth, toast, chocolate, blackcurrant, bramble, jam, vinous notes and mild acidity. Medium+ body and moderate carbonation. Smooth, fruity and rather drinkable. Nice one.

Medium to smooth mouthfeel, medium high bitterness.Very nice, one of the best beers I had on my 5 week trip in Oz, so happy I kept bothering the staff until they located one for me. Kept well with age too.

From a 330ml bottle on 29/5/2013 (2011 vintage bottle 0209 of 2500), Pours mahogany with a big tan head. Has a rather unusual aroma of chocolate and orange. Take a sip and it starts out with lots of milk chocolate, some hints of vanilla, and irish whiskey liqueur. It finishes off with a medium roasty bitterness and a touch of soy. The palate is creamy and it’s a little over carbonated (very high for an impy). The carbonation issue aside, this is very nice stuff.

Bottle, 13C. Black with a tan head that fades to a coat. Aroma of oak, dark berries, grapes, mocha. Very silky mouthfeel. Alcohol sticks out more than expected. Taste has mocha flavours and hints of berries. Not much sweetness at all. Firm bitterness, quite salty. And lots of oak droning on through the lot.

Bottled. A pitch black beer with a thin brown head. The aroma has notes of alcohol, wood, bourbon, and roasted malt. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of alcohol, as well as medium notes of roasted malt and wood, leading to a dry roasted finish.
