Obsidian Welsh stout has a very attractive aroma of chocolate and coffee. The palate is lovely and clean with a nice dark, smoky finish. The acidity is very refreshing and carries all of the flavours through to an attractive, bitter finish.

500ml bottle from Everyman's. Pours dark, good off-white head. Medium bodied stout giving a spotlight to chocolate and espresso roast whilst reigning in the bitterness somewhat. Very satisfying overall. Another banger from Magic Dragon.

Cask at Smithfield, Derby. Pours a dark reddish-brown with a small off-white head. Theres dark fruits in the aroma, and they carry over into the mouth. Plenty of malts too and olde English spangles, humbugs and a hint of liquorice. Finish is quite bitter. This is reasonable.

Cask at The Pheasant, Wellington Shropshire on 30th October 2021. Black bodied, tanned head. Some coffee notes, dry and a bit 'thin' body wise.
