500ml bottle [courtesy of Grumbo - thank you very much for another ship label!]. Jet black colour with small to average, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, off-white to beige head. Roasty, minimally spicy, dark malty and fruity aroma, notes of blueberry, dark chocolate, hints of blackcurrant, whiffs of raw beef. Taste is slightly dry, roasty dark malty, fruity and minimally smoky, notes of dark chocolate, minimally diluted hints of blueberry, blackberry, blackcurrant, a touch of raw beef, very subtle sweetness. Minimally oily texture, smooth and soft, minimally cloying palate, fine and soft carbonation. Quite rich for its low abv, well balanced, nice fruity flavours - pretty good.

Bottle from Beer Ambleside. Appearance - opaque back with an olive sheen. Off white creamy head. Nose - beef and molasses with a light edge of smoke. Taste - barbecue and meaty again. A touch of molasses and then a nice smoky dryness to it. Palate - medium bodied and lightly smoky and roasty middle and finish. Overall - very nice.

Bottle shared with Ashton McCobb. Pours dark brown with a thin beige head. Aromas are meaty rather than smoky. Some burnt sugar. Taste is more of the same. Savoury.
