15/2/2021. Can sample courtesy of SHIG, cheers. Pours black with a small tan coloured head. Aroma of coffee, roasted malt, chocolate, dark fruits, touch of liquorice. Moderate sweetness, medium coffee roast bitterness. Medium body, smooth texture, above average carbonation. Plenty of Breakfast Coffee that's for sure. Slight tart fruit finish. Enjoyable.
