440ml can from sophiesbeerstore.co.uk. Pitch black appearance, foamy tan head. Aroma of chocolate with a gentle caramel sweetness. Taste brings dark malt with soft vanilla shades.. expected a little more salted caramel presence, though some does nudge in on the close. Fairly strong alcohol tang, more salted caramel and chocolate would've been welcome, fine overall.

24/4/2020. Sample courtesy of the SHIG, cheers! Pours very dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma of dark chocolate, rich molasses, cocoa, toffee, dark fruits and vanilla. Medium sweetness and moderate toasted bitterness. Full body, slick texture, soft carbonation. Rich, tangy, boozy finish.
