Black colour, medium head that does not last long but shows very good lacing. Aroma is dark chocolate, roasted malt, a bit of prune. Light sweetness, light bitterness. Light body. Quite smooth, definitely not aggressive, overall good.

Bottle at home in London - got from some online retailer. Pours dark brown with red highlights and a creamy tan head. Pleasing aroma of lightly toasted bread, mellow cocoa, soft roast. Light to medium sweet flavor with lightly charred toast, mild milk chocolate and subtle scorched earth bitterness. Light in body with fine to average, massaging carbonation and creamy texture. Very well balanced to finish with further milk chocolate notes, more toasted and lightly burnt bread, minimal bitterness, perhaps some torched leaves. Highly drinkable beer.

500ml bottle at home. Pours black with a thick tan head. Coffee and liquorice aromas, taste brings a bit of dark chocolate sweetness, and a light woody note. Finishes pretty clean. Bit thin, but not bad.
