Bottle at LKS, thanks to the host. Cheers. It pours near jet black with a medium light tan head. The aroma is quite rich, roasted malt, tar, deep roast, coffee, some fruity notes, citrus and plum. The taste is rich roasted malt, charred wood, toasty, burnt pine, orange peel, marmalade, toasted grass and earthy. Finish is rich roast and dryness. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Pretty robust. Decent.

Bottle shared in London - picked up at the Lab. Pours deep brown with a creamy, tan head. Charred malts in the nose, some burnt pine, orange peel. Light sweet flavour with notes of ashy roast, more burnt pine, citrus peel. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Finishes with notes of bitter cocoa, ashy roast, burnt pine, scorched earth. Not bad.
