Bottle from Cotteridge Wines. Pours black with tall chocolate head. Full bodied, mocca, roasted flavors, dark fruits, bit of smoked character. Now this is truly enjoyable.

9/2/2019. Bottle from Beer Dock, Crewe. Pours almost black with a good sized tan coloured head. Aroma of chocolate, roasted malt, dark fruit, leather, hops, citrus, hint of liquorice and ash. Moderate sweetness and medium plus roasted bitterness. Medium to full body, average carbonation. Dry, fruity, bitter chocolate finish. Towards black IPA territory. Very good.

Fra fat på Brewdog Cambridge Circus nov-18: brunsvart med fint skum som varer. Superlekker aroma og smak med stor munnfylde og enda større glede. Ristede rugbrødskorper, franskbrent espresso, mørk lakridschokolade, moccabønner og en lekker urtebitterhed i den tørre avslutningen. Elegant fra første til siste stund.

0,33 l bottle. Pours almost black with big frothy lasting tan head. Aroma of roasted malt, dark fruit, prunes, some alcohol, a bit of citrus. Flavor is similar, plenty of dried fruit and licorice with some nicely complemented mocha and chocolate. Taste is medium sweet and light to medium bitter. Body is medium, texture creamy and sticky, carbonation average. Finish is quite long, sweet dried fruit is nicely complemented with more and more pronounced bitterness. In the end a nice lingering fruity flavor remains.
