Bottle ordered from Premier Hop, Pudsey. Black and oily. Zero head. Aroma of dark chocolate, liquorice and booze. It's roasty. Underlying molasses. All through a smoky haze. Sour vinous and dark berry flava. Bitter streak, a real dark Chocolate edge. Underlying fruity sweetness. Pungent smoke throughout. Heavy bodied. Oily. Average carbonation. Long finish. Not in fact what I was expecting. Not a complaint, it's just that the vinous and sweet elements were unexpected. A warming sipper.

Bottle from Hoptimism. Appearance - opaque jet black with a fawn crema. Generally seems like low carbonation. Nose - blackberries and dark chocolate. Booziness. Taste - more booziness again, backed up by dark berry fruit or prunes. And rich dark chocolate very present too. Palate - full bodied and sweet. Overall - a little sweeter than ideal but suits the style I suppose.
