200ml pours a dark brown with reddish edges and some lacey tan head. Nose has malt, toast, some marzipan, some rootbeer. Flavor has cola, malt, some pumpernickel, some chocolate, marzipan, chicory. Finishes dry. Fine. Maybe lacking something. 6 4 6 3 11

500ml bottle. Plenty of chocolate, a little bitter plum and maybe some oaty biscuit character. Honestly, not all that smooth and a thin body. Not too bad.

Pint on tap in Monteiths bar, Hanmer Springs. Black as black with thin tan film on top. Laces well. Chocolate and coffee aroma. Served too cold (of course). Light body, sweet taste with weak fruit notes. Finish has dry cocoa and a slight bitterness. S’alright but you won’t remember it tomorrow.
