Black beer with a light brown head. Aroma is malt, some chocolate and a bit of hop. Taste is dark chocolate, bitter coffee, earthy malt and a bit of airy, maybe even slightly citrusy hop. Rich and with a lingering bitter, slightly smoky aftertaste.

Keg at BD Soho. It pours opaque black with a medium tan head. The aroma is rich roasted malts, coffee grounds, toasty, cacao nibs, spice, ash, bonfire, charred wood and meaty smoke. The taste is rich dark roasted malt, rather robust, spicy, charred wood, ashy, salted liquorice, plenty of umami, smoked character, earthy, chewy malt and tar with a drying and roasted finish. Medium - full body and average carbonation. Very robust and pretty intense on the malt front. Maybe a bit too much and lacks a bit of drinkability. Fun anyhow.
