Bottle at SBWF 2018. Almost black with a small head. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate and some bread. The same in the taste, also notes of earth. The body was medium and the finish quite dry. A bit on the light side.

Backlog. From tap at Mitchell’s Scottish Ale House, V&A Waterfront, Cape Town, with HO 10.04.12. Black in colour, off-white head. Aroma of roasted malt with a hint of old Port. Some caramel sweetness. Round mouthfield, little carbonation. Aftertaste of roasted malt and malt bitterness. A good and well-balanced stout.
