A sessionable, flavour packed dry stout. Brewed with a base of pale malt, flaked barley and oats, a variety of roasted grains. The roasted grains bring notes of toasted bread crust, raisin, molasses, bitter cocoa and gently acidic coffee, with the oats and flaked barley providing a full mouthfeel. This beer finishes dry, with a gentle but lasting bitterness and another wave of dark chocolate and roastiness.

Draft at the Rook, Brighton. Poured almost black in colour with a thin broken tan head. The aroma is roasty, earthy. The flavour is moderate liquorice bitter, with a smooth, roasty, earthy, liquorice bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. Nothing special.

Очень странное пиво. Как будто в сухой стаут захерачили копченую рыбу. Как то дикий дисонанс.

Cask at CBC, Covent Garden on 7th June 2025. Almost impenetrably black with tan foam and spot lacing. Roasty malts aroma. Smoky roastiness in-mouth and a roasty finish. Zingy mouthfeel, though simultaneously watery. Light body.

Cask pint at Hand in Hand Brighton. Opaque black with some creamy beige head. Bang on nose, malt and toast and caramel. Flavors follow. A bit sweeter than you'd expect but so creamy and easy to drink. 7 5 8 5 14

Klassiek, droog, koffie met room, hint van tabak, gebrande noten, nitro uiterlijk. Waterig maar smaakvol, prima bij dit hondenweer.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from Beer No Evil online. Pours clear brown with a small, fading foamy beige head. Lightly sweet with restrained ashy roast, cocoa, some earth, raisins, nips of black coffee. Light bodied with delicate carbonation. Balanced finish, more subdued roast, coffee, dark malts, light ash and earth. Nicely rounded stuff.

Keg at The Hand in Hand Brewpub, Brighton. A black coloured pour with a healthy beige/off white head on top. Roasty, malty, coffee aroma and taste, pleasant stout.
