Handpull cask at Stod Fold @ Dean Clough,, Halifax. Dark brown, mostly opaque with a medium to large tight khaki head. Aroma of ash, blackberry, roast coffee. Taste is bittersweet with more coffee and a trace of liquorice followed by a bitter finish. Light to medium body, soft carbonation. Pretty good stout.
