Bottle shared with Ashton McCobb. Pours dark brown with a massive tan head, seems over-carbonated for some reason. Aromas of chocolate and yeast. Taste is more woody yeast, faint liquorice, chocolate. Bit fizzy overall. Light cocoa finish.

Bottle (4.3% ABV). Black body with a massive tan head. Faint lacing. Aroma of milk chocolate and charred wood. Flavour of roasted malt and a tangy finish. Thin to medium body with a fizzy, frothy mouthfeel. Quite weak and forgettable.
