Nice medium bitter chocolate flavor. A bit of vanilla and a bit of spices in the mix as well. Wonderful mouthfeel. I’d previously had a different vintage from a can and this drinks much nicer.

Really tasty beer. Great balance. Just sweet enough. Rich bittersweet chocolate. Nice torched wood. Earth and ash. Good body, velvety. Dangerously drinkable.

330ml can from the brewery. Poured almost black in colour with a mostly lasting frothy tan head. The aroma is roasty malt, floral. The flavour is moderate liquorice bitter, light sweet, with a roasty, dry, herbal, earthy, rubbery, floral, light liquorice bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. Disappointing.
