Tasting at Bruce’s pad, thanks to the Leightonator, 12/06/14. Extremely dark mahogany brown with a well appointed light tan covering. Nose is liqourice, spice, dark berry fruits, light roast, cocoa rub. Taste comprises Ribena berries, light roast, liqourice stick, earthy hop, red berry fruit. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Decent enough CDA.

Tasting at Bruce’s pad. Thanks to Leighton. Opaque dark brown beer, small pale tan head. Palate is light and crisp. Airy malts, mild dark character, some dark chocolate. Light spice and mild piney hops. Light dry finish. Not bad but wanted more from a big CDA.

Bottle shared in London - big thanks to the Duke. Pours black-brown with a creamy, tan head. Toasty bread on the nose with some burnt toffee. Light to medium sweet flavor with light toasted peanuts, baking cocoa, earth. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Burnt earth finish with notes of wood, baking cocoa, some dried citrus. Decent.

Bottle thanks to L-Dogg. It pours near black with a thick beige head. The nose is toasty, pine needles, soap, shreddies, orange peel and dark chocolate. The taste is bitter-sweet, earth, toasty, ash, liquorice, citrus peel, jammy berry, blackcurrant and cocoa with a bitter, roasty finish. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Nice balance and high drinkability. Very good.
