Bottleshare at Craft Islington. Thanks to Dan the man. Almost opaque dark brown beer, small pale tan head. Smooth palate, soft, reasonable fine carbonation. Soft dark malts, thin and tangy, little tangy dark chocolate. Modest tangy dark fruits. Some plum liqueur. Light finish. Not bad, bit left field to be be easily drinkable.

11/V/19 - 33cl bottle from the brewery, shared @ home, BB: n/a - (2019-701)
Shout-out to the brewery: pretty lame to put up a sign saying: all bottles £3, and then charge me £5.50 or something similar for this one...
Clear dark purple brown beer, no head. Aroma: lots of dried fruits, bit spicy, mined pies, alcohol, soft roast, malty. MF: soft carbon, medium to full body. Taste: very vitter and hoppy, soft roast, sweet malty touch, some strawberry jam, sugary. Aftertaste: very dry, bitter hops, harsh roast, some alcohol, chocolate notes, jam, bit oxidized, mocha, dates and figs, nice one!
