Cask-conditioned, on gravity, at the Tewkesbury Winter Ales Festival, 7/2/2020. Near black in colour, with a thin, off-white, head. Milk chocolate notes, some vanila, a touch of toastiness and After Eight mints in the finish. Good.

6/4/2019. Draught at The Eternal Optimist, Swindon. Pours very dark brown with a lasting beige head. Aroma of chocolate, mint ice cream, hint of lime and light veg. Medium sweetness, light bitterness. Moderate body, slight watery texture tire, average to soft carbonation. Tasted better than aroma. Ok.

Cask at the Cock Tavern - Hackney. Pours black-brown with a frothy, khaki head. Nice mix of bitter cocoa and cool mint, some ashy roast, scorched earth. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation; fine condition. Finishes with more bittersweet dark chocolate laced with mint. Sound.

Cask @ Coracle, Ironbridge. Pours black, creamy pale tan head. Pleasant mint and chocolate chip on the nose. Taste presents a well-balanced, rounded character, dark chocolate chips and an integrated mint presence. Soft underlying lactose, light bitterness. Pretty decent overall.
