Can shared in London - picked up at BMT I think. Pours brown with a creamy tan head. Holds notes of burnt toast, earthy hops, light roast, a little ashy cocoa. Medium bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Finishes with some notes of torched pine, scorched earth, more dry cocoa. So so overall.

Can split at L6, many thanks, 20/11/19. Extremely dark mahogany brown with a well presented beige cap. Nose is cocoa powder, pine needle, citric flesh, dried fruit esters, light spice. Taste comprises dried berry fruits, cocoa sprinkle, light charr, roasted bite, hint of pine. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with dusty come earthy hop bitterness. Decent CDA.

Sympatycznie chlalne ale nic niesamowitego, nieco zbozowej kawy, nieco sosny, niemalo palonosci, dosc chlalne, 3.4?

440ml can at home. Pours a deep black with a tan head. Aroma of freshly brewed coffee and grapefruit. Nice roasty and toasty flavour upfront and citrus after. Lovely black IPA
