500ml bottle from the brewery, pouring a dark brown colour with light copper highlights. The soapy head is fairly tall, bubbling away slowly with its light mocha-colouring and leaving some foamy patches. Aromas of roasted malts with nuttiness to balance. Coffee and chocolate hints. Even maple, toffee. Same for the flavours, but with some good bitterness from the hops, adding a nice dry finish. Espresso tart blends well with the hoppiness on the tongue. Quite a nice light stout, that still delivers lots for 3% ABV.
