Smell seems very wet with lots of hops and some sweet roasted barley. Beige cream head sits on top of a very black body. Flavour is kind of a meaty mix of coffee and shoe leather. Wet finish but satisfying in a protein kind of way. A pretty good stout that satisfies, something often missing from stouts.

Cask at the OCH, 06/04/18. Black with a well presented tan cap. Nose is toffee, hop dusting, light pine, CDA like, liquorice stick. Taste comprises light coffee, toffee fudge, mellow roast, red berry notes, light cacao, charred effect. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, drying close with roasted tones and mellow hop bitterness at the curtain call. Solid hopped up stout ... I'll say it again ... quite Black IPA like!

Handpull cask at the Fox & Crown, Newark. Dark brown, almost opaque, with a tight khaki head. Pine resin, burnt malt, Robusta coffee beans and wildflower aroma. Bitter and almost fruity taste, leading to a harsher bitterness to the finish. Black grape and more resinous notes in the aftertaste. There is a thinness to the body but I'm concentrating on the intense flavour so much that I hardly notice. Exceptional.

Cask at the Southampton Arms, London on 1st February 2018. Almost impenetrably black with pale tan ring-and-film giving spot lacing. Rich and intense roasty aroma tickled by a citrus note. Coffee, bitter chocolate and just a hint of smoke in-mouth, and a sophisticated finish. Medium bodied with a smooth mouthfeel. Exquisite.

Cask at the Old Coffee House - Soho. Pours black with a stiff, frothy khaki head. The nose holds well toasted malts, dark chocolate, tobacco, ash. Light sweet flavour with good bittersweet cocoa character, rich ashy dryness, some scorched earth. Light bodied with fine carbonation and velvety texture. Drying and ashy on the finish, with more sturdy baking cocoa, burnt earth, grass. Solid.

Cask at Old Coffee House. It pours black with a sturdy light tan head. The aroma is bitter - sweet, rich roasted malt, oily dark chocolate, chewy, chocolate powder and touch of dark fruit. The taste is dry, bitter, a bit tart and tangy upfront...blackcurrant, blackberry, fruit compote, jammy, earthy, roasted malt, touch of charred stuff, bit of astringency, peppery spice and umami. Finish at dry and charred. Medium body and fine carbonation. Tastes a bit bolloxed. Tangy tart vibes... Ain't what I was expecting in the stout.
