Can from the Low Cost Beer online shop. Pours rich thick black with a thin tan head. Aromas of dark chocolate and vanilla. Taste has the coffee too. Rich and thick, like a British Prime Minister. Nice.

Can ordered from Twisted Crow, Basingstoke. Aroma has bitter coffee with creamy porridge streak. Dark and glossy. Red tints. Foamy tan head soon pretty much disappears. Medium-heavy bitter... initial impressions. Espresso. Followed by tangy berries, molasses and a burst of vanilla sweetness. However the espresso with added liquorice and a smoky impression follow through. Medium-heavy bodied. Thick and creamy. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long somewhat astringent finish. Oh yeah. Goof stuff.

Can shared thanks to Tony@The Green Goddess Brewpub, Blackheath, London (07/08/2022) - black with a tan covering. Big opulent chocolate aroma and taste, some coffee roast, notes of caramel and toffee, luscious creamy substantial malty mouthfeel and body, vanilla kissed sweet malty finish. Lovely.
