Bottle from Thistle News. It pours jet black with a thick tan head. The nose is roasted malt, toast, tar, cocoa, coffee and soy sauce. The taste is bitter, roasty, coffee, pepper, toast, mild acidity, tar and light soy sauce with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Not bad, I’m just not a big fan of the soy sauce character kicking about.

Bottle from Beer Central, Sheffield. Just about black. Brown head that sets off big, then quickly reduces to a film. Fruity, dark chocolate. Licorice. A light, brown sauciness. Missus. Plenty of roast malt. Hint of coffee, too. Taste is firstly, smoky BBQ sweet, then roast malt dryness. Very smooth mouthfeel. Light bitter, medium dry finish. Lovely.

22oz bomber. Attractive opaque brown-black body. Respectable creamy beige head. The aroma has some mineral chocolate bitterness, which is not at all inappropriate for the style. On the fuller side of medium bodied, smooth and creamy, but still a depth of malt flavors. Certainly a solid example of the style, Gets some bonus points for the fact that they grow their own hops and barley. If you are open to this style, this is a worthy beer to seek out.

Botella de 65 cl en el lupulo. Mayo de 2013. Cuerpo ligero - medio con toques quemados y tostados con cierto regusto amargo final. No está mal. Habrá que repetir.

On tap @ Animal. Black colour with a creamy, dense and good lasting tan head. Aroma has notes of roasted malts with notes of coffee and licorice. Flavor is toasted malts, light wood and ash with notes of licorice, coffee and black chocolate. The final has a good bodyness with notes of coffee and dry sensation.
