On tap at Ebenezers, Crewe. Pours completely black with no head whatsoever. There’s definitely nuts in the aroma, but it’s probably autosuggestion to claim I identified them as pecans. Dark fruits in the mix as well. In the mouth it is sweet with maple and a little chocolate. Oats come through in the finish to remind us that Mighty Stout is an oatmeal stout. Hard to work up much enthusiasm for this – maple is a bit of a bland flavour.

Keg @ Bailey Head. Pours black with patchy beige foam atop. Aroma brings roast with light maple sweetness. Medium bodied, soft roast, teasing maple alongside a chocolate undercurrent, pecans just creeping in on the finish. Could be sweeter but on the whole it's well presented and a nice introduction to this brewery.
