Cask at GBBF 2010. A pitch black beer with a tan head. The aroma has strong roasted notes combined with medium hoppy notes. The flavor is sweet malty with extremely storng notes of liquorice - too much for me, combined with some roasted malt, leading to a dry, roasted, woody, and liquorice finish.

Opaque black beer with a suddy tan head. Fresh minerally dark malt. Not bitter but quite dry. Just a light touch of licorice. Some sublte fruit in the undertone. Tastes okay but too dry.

Cask at GBBF 2010. A dark brown/black pour with a smallish beige head. Liqourice, roasty aroma. Tastes of liqourice, coffee, a little malt. A bit of a novelty but quite an interesting stout.

From cask. Pours dark brown to black with a small tan head. Aroma is roasted malt and liqourice. Sweet malty, hardroasted, mild liqourice and sweet toffee. Ends bitter and with a persisting light liqourice note.
