Black beer, thin and bubbly brown head. Rich malty aroma with a little of the rye. Rye is big in the flavour too, along with lots of toasty malt, a little dark chocolate, a little aniseed. Rich, with boozy warmth. Perhaps a touch of smoke. The rye is there throughout, giving a straightforward but punchy stout something a little extra. It's very nice indeed.
