Can from Westhill SS. It pours pretty much with a quickly dissipating tan head. The aroma is bitter - sweet, earthy roasted malts, coffee grounds, light smokey bonfire, cacao nibs and dark chocolate torte. The taste is dry roasted malts upfront, earthy bitterness, cacao nibs, sticky, chocolate cake, earthy roast, coffee grounds, coffee cake, nutty aspect and some underlying vanilla like sweetness with a dry, hard roasted finish. Medium body, fine foamy carbonation and some stickiness in the mouth. Decent stuff. Not up their with the lagers, but fun nonetheless.

Black beer with a thin head and a rich coffee smell. Taste has loads of coffee, some malt and a load of chocolate through it too. Not a huge depth of flavour but it's pretty tasty and the coffee lingers into the aftertaste nicely. Good richness to it as well.

500ml can. Black with a very thin tan head. Aroma of coffee, vanilla, chocolate. Taste is rich with creamy coffee, roast, vanilla and chocolate. Yes it lacks some body, light for a stout but that makes it supremely drinkable given the rich flavour.

Can from Beer Zoo. Black body with a thin beige head that fades. Faint lacing. Aroma of nuts and chocolate. Flavour of rust, chocolate and plum. Thin body with a watery, slick texture. Soft fizz. A decent beer but it’s lacking in body.

Highly carbonated gives it that carbonic bite, dry beer, has that cold brew coffee taste. But it’s a good beer. Runaway brewery Manchester
