Belhaven Black Scottish Stout really is something completely different. Bursting with roast coffee and chocolate flavours, this is a truly genuine and premium pint. Brewed using pure Scottish water and a unique blend of Scottish triple malts sourced from the finest locally grown barley.
Belhaven Black was launched across the UK on 23rd January 2012. A day of Scottish pride indeed. Bottles will be available in your local supermarket from April 2012.

14.9 oz can with a nitro widget. Aroma is toasted marshmallow, chocolate. Pours black with beautiful nitro cascading foam, creating a thick tan cap of foam with excellent retention. Great toasty, malty stout flavors; starts sweet, finishes dry. As with all nitro beers, it's the carbonation that brings everything down for me. I need more bubbles in my beer.

16.9oz can. Nitro. Low carbonation oily, watery, Stout-like thing. Really simplistic stuff. Sweet, mildly roasty chocolate malt tones. Nitro accentuates the thin, watery body. Easy drinking. OK.

Bottle. Looks like a Stout should: black with a beige head. No surprises here. Lovely aroma of roasted malts and dark chocolate. Taste is full-on malts, coffee and dark chocolate. Dry and mildly bitter aftertaste. Low to medium carbonation. Body is kind of thin but this doesn't detract from the tastiness. Would have again.
