Bottle from Cotteridge Wines and drunk at home Black beer thick tan head. Very drinkable strong dark beer. Plenty of chewy blackberry and blackcurrant and molasses. Lots of dark malt. Really rather decent. Hides abv well. Some bitterness on the finish. Dark chocolate. Light coffee presence. More a tarry malty molasses character. Good fruit.

Ratebeer Odense Summer Gathering 2023. Black with a big off-white head. Aroma of citrus and liquorice blending perfectly together like the best hoppy porters. Roasted flavour with liquorice, coffee and charcoal along with inviting hints of citrus.

Bevuta in bottiglia. Birra scura con schiuma consistente. Ottimi profumi. Leggero amaro finale. Equilibrata.
