Can. Dark fruit, smoke, plum, faint milk chocolate, hint of strawberry, ash. Taste is fruity, blackcurrant, leading to smoke, chocolate, vimto more fruit, and a heavy ash and boozy Peppery almost astringent finish. The alcohol is heavy and too pronounced in the finish for my taste. The flavours never really come together.

Dark brown, thin head. Caramel roast soy aroma. Flavor is a bit tricky, bitterness is astringent and unpleasant. Heavy chocolate and black malt content I guess.
