Smooth, dark and delectably indulgent… Introducing Nightjar. With its roasted coffee notes and dry, bitter finish, this smooth and creamy British Stout is something to behold.

Keg at Sanzibar, Sedgley. Darkest brown ans glossy. Thick foamy white head with decent lacing. Aroma has creamy coffee with a sour streak. Flavourwise it's surprising sour - tart - sour spur coffee (plus bitternes). Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. OK. Not at it's best? And also more of a Mild?
