330ml can: BB 16th Apr 19. Poured into my lovely thistle shaped 'Gordon Finest Gold' glass at home on 11th May 18. The beer looked great, full tanned foaming head on a jet black body. Aroma and taste certainly had chocolate within their feel, some vanilla and coffee notes also, marshmallow maybe. Smooth, drinkable and getting towards marshmallow as the beer warmed a little (again maybe), nice though.

Can courtesy of Geraint and Helen, consumed at home Saturday 31st March 2018 whilst cooking Classic French Beef Daube and helping Nick with the removal of the old boiler. Pours black with a light fudge coloured head. A little bit thin but otherwise a decent stout, milk chocolate, a little chewy caramel, it's ok. A6 A4 T6 P3 Ov13 3.2
