Reviewed from notes.
Can to snifter.
Appearance: dark brown close to black color with a quarter finger of khaki foamy head which took it's time to trail off and once it did there was some light lace
Aroma: black coffee roast, sweet vanilla; milk chocolate, dark chocolate, almonds and fudgy to cake-like character
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet quality; finishes sweet and nutty
Texture: medium bodied, leaning to be a sipper; some smoothness, quaint dryness
Overall: a pastry impy porter with an air of diabetes to it. Got it! I liked it and would welcome again as long as my doctor approves.

Appearance is oily jet black, with a small tan fizzy head which goes quickly. Aroma is chocolate, coffee, dark chocolate malt, fudge cake, vanilla, brownies. Taste is rich chocolate, cakey malt, coffee, vanilla, treacle toffee, rum and whisky hints, boozy dark malt, sweet chocolate finish, nutty malt. Full and rich in the mouth, very tasty.

Can shared in London - many thanks to Mitch. Pours clear, deep brown with a light, creamy tan head. Rich, dense, moderately sweet, with light roast, mellow earthy vibes, chocolate, raisins. Full bodied, lightly chewy, with fine carbonation. Warming finish, more chocolate and some dark fruits. Good stuff.

Black with a brown head - Dark malt and coffee in the aroma - Malt body with some coffee flavour and some dark fruity tones with some bitterness - The mlat goes into the finish with some coffee notes - This was good
