31/10/2020. Sample courtesy of SHIG, cheers. Pours almost black with a small beige head. Aroma of roasted malt, dark chocolate, coffee, liquorice, vanilla and dried fruits. Moderate sweetness and medium roasted bitterness. Medium body, smooth texture, average carbonation. Bitter roast finish. Decent drop.
