Bottle. Black with a tan head that fades to a half inch and then to the rim. Aroma of licorice, coffee, chocolate, light floral and peppery notes that seem to float above the rest. That makes for a charming aroma, but when it continues in the mouth it’s disconcerting. There’s a biggish stout that’s pleasant if blandish with mocha, dark fudge and a peppery bitter bite overlaid with a somehow separate floral/ herbal and light barnyard touch. The flavours never mesh at all really but it’s somehow not a car crash. Intriguing.
