From a 375ml can on 22/1/2025. Pours a deep, deep brown with a medium head. Smells malty - lots of chocolate and caramel presenting. Taste follows suit - very malty, with sweet dark chocolate and caramel, and a touch of coffee and molasses. Finishes with a lovely balancing, lingering bitterness, finishing with a hint of smoke. The palate is slightly syrupy, the carbonation modest. Very true to style and really well done.

Can. Very dark red brown with a fat coat of tan head. Aroma of mocha, oatcakes, caramel. Big but silky and so clean it slips away. Tastes as it smells initially but then there's an almost spiky peppery bitterness at the end. Warmth there too. Good but lacks the depth of Frozen Sea.
