Dark ruby, almost opaque color, steady creamy beige head, lace. Toasted chocolaty aroma. Soft palate. Toasted, chocolaty flavor with some licorice in it. A bit sticky finish. Very rounded and enjoyable - on cask it is almost a porter than an old ale.

Cask at Guildford Arms, Ediburgh. A pitch black beer with a thick brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of chocolate and roasted malt. The flavor is sweet malty with strong notes of roasted malt as well as medium notes of chocolate. Nice.

Cask at Guildford Arms, Edinburgh. Black, small white head. Aroma of coffee and tar. Sweet and very malty, reeks of freshly ground coffee. Full bodied with notes of plums. Softly poerful and really good.

Cask handpull at Guildford Arms, Edinburgh. Softer in cask that in bottle. Tarry, good espresso, great mouthfeel. Really rather good. NIce tarry bitter finish. A lot wider in the mouthfeel than the oilier bottled beer. Great to find this on cask. 3.8/5.0 New ABV Cask handpull at Willow Walk ’Sporks. I had this on cask at the old strength in the Guildford Arma, Edinburgh and it was one of the beers of the RBESG 07 for me, so I was interested in this. Black, ruby hints, thin tan head. This is still a tasty beer with smoky charcoal and tarry malts. Good fullness in mouth. Aroma is excellent. Good fruit in mouth. Decent stinging finish. Rounded juicy charcoal in mouth. Excellent. 3.9/5.0
