A full-bodied oatmeal stout showcasing flavours of dark chocolate, rich caramel and fresh espresso. The finish is sweet with low bitterness and a creamy smooth texture. It's almost too good to drink.

Keg at the Flint Cottage, Wycombe. Black with a thick beige head and a light fizz. Black coffee and caramel with - unfortunately - a hint of vomit. Rather thin. Not great.

Keg at the Flint Cottage, HWY, 01/06/21. Black with a good sized lasting tan cap. Nose is a little on the thin side... dried fruits, modest roast, light cocoa strains. Taste comprises dried fruits, touch of chocolate malt, hint of red berry fruits, light roasted bite. Medium bodied, fine massaging carbonation, semi drying close. Decent enough easy going stout.

330ml can delivered from the brewery and drunk at home late at night. Mid- to dark brown, translucent with a quickly dissipating khaki head. Dark chocolate, some yeast extract, savoury gravy notes in the aroma. Bittersweet taste with chocolate and liquorice notes, leading to a more bitter finish. Soft to medium carbonation. It's a lovely little stout with a superb balance.
