440ml can. Pours deep dark reddish brown with a foamy head. Aroma of blueberry juice, earthiness, roasty malts, creamy lactic notes and milk coffee. Taste is sweet, earthy and stuffy with some blueberry notes, milk coffee, lactic creamy notes and mild roastiness. Finish is milky, creamy and heavy with blueberry notes, hints of lactic notes, coffee and earthiness. A bit unbalanced and messy.

Keg at the Cock Tavern - Hackney. Pours deep brown with a creamy, tan head. Nice aroma, some dark fruits, cocoa, mellow roast. Medium sweet flavour with more dark fruits, berries, maybe blueberry, some sugary chocolate, low bitterness. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Decent balance in the finish, more chocolate, sweet dark fruits, berries. Quite fun overall.

440ml can. Pours a dark hazy reddy brown colour with a thin tan head. Aroma is very much like blueberry muffins, doughy pastry, a little chocolate. Taste is sweet, blueberries, chocolate, doughy bready malts, subtle roast malts, lactose. Medium body, thinnish texture, smooth, soft carbonation. Not outstanding but it captures the essence of blueberry muffins very accurately.
