Cask at Craft Clerko. It pours jet black with a small, bubbly tan head. The aroma is bitter - sweet, creamy, chocolate cake, toasty action, sweet dark fruits and berry. The taste is smooth, rich roast, coffee, creamy, rocky road, chocolate chip cookies, light spice and earth with a dryish finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Rich and really well balanced. Very nice.

"Staff half" Growler from the brewer. Quaffed at home. Pours pitch black, minimal head. Aroma is light roast, faint caramel. Taste is light and quite dry. Peppered roasted malts, light coffee, very salty with a faint nod of pine hop.
