Can. Gift from the missus. Been sat in the fridge ages and is now beyond its bbd. Pours with a massive swede. Looks decent once it’s settled. Nose has green coffee bean. Ashy earthy malt. Light fruity notes. Taste is dry and earthy with a modicum of sweetness. Super fizzy (obvs that’s my fault). Earthy finish. Bet this would have been great if I’d not stared at for so long, like a twat.

440ml can. Pours black, small tanned head, thin retention. Aroma of coffee beans, roasted malts, dark chocolate, sweetness. Taste is moderately bitter coffee beans, roasty, rich dark chocolate, light citrus and spice hop finish. Medium bodied, moist. It's good.

Black beer, big off white head. Big coffee smell to it. Flavour has that too, loads of coffee, some chocolate, toasty malt. The coffee is doing most of the legwork here but it's a super drinkable stout despite a very skivhtly watery finish.

Draft at Sommar, Waterloo Street. Poured almost black in colour with a lasting frothy off-white head. The aroma is roasted malt and coffee. The flavour is moderate liqourice bitter, with a smooth, roasty, dry coffee, ashtray, light liquorice bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.
