Brimming with coffee and chocolate flavours, hints of liquorice and dark fruits. Brewed with Pale Ale, Brown, Double Roasted Crystal and Roasted malts and hopped with Phoenix and other British hops. A rich, smooth Stout named after the characterful, black-tarred fishing huts that line Southwold's harbour

Keg at the Lord Nelson and bottle at lowestoft picked up from the adnams brewery shop. A reddy mahogany brown coloured pour with a lasting creamy tan head. Aroma is smoky roast, burnt raisin cake, meaty roast. Flavour is composed of smooth, creamy oats, bitter roast, liquorice, little metallic in the finish. Firm bitter roast in the finish, charred wood. Palate is semi sweet, creamy, moderate carbonation.

Can, 0.44l. Aroma of cereals, mildly roasted malt, coffee and licorice. Pitch black color with thin creamy light brown head and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts with light sweet roasted malt and cappuccino, follows by caramel, chocolate and faint herbs, mouthfeel is smooth, while finish is mild bitter. Light body, creamy texture and average carbonation in palate. Thin, silky, but surely tasty...
