330ml can. Hazy amber, small off-white head, some retention. Aroma is very yeasty and earthy, some coffee and caramel; its different but it doesn't make want to drink it. Taste is yeasty and sweet with caramel, coffee and cardboard. Strong earthy-coffee bitterness in the finish which could wake a dead horse. Unusual, not bland, but ultimately not that tasty either although when the palate gets used to it you do notice the complexity here.

Large foamy off white head stayed on a rust coloured body. Huge coffee aroma. Medium bodied, sharp & clean. Coffee, earthy, jam, berries & a very bitter finish. Harsh.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from Clapton Craft. Pours mostly clear orange-gold with a frothy, off-white head. Light to medium sweet with notes of coffee, leaves, semi-ripe citrus fruits, toasted malts, subtle vanilla. Medium bodied, lightly oily, with fine to average carbonation. Just a touch sticky in the finish, more coffee notes, some earthy-leafy bitterness, toasted malts. Interesting. Not bad.
