Bottle shared by Grumbo. Aroma is piney, coffee, roasted malts, chocolate and fruit. Very good body allows the aroma to develop through. Roasted coffee bitterness developed very nicely. A great example of this type of beer.

500ml bottle [courtesy of Grumbo - cheers Graham!]. Quasi black colour with minimalyl late awakening, average to huge, thick, dense, creamy, moderately to mostly lasting, minimally lacing, beige head. Roasty, chocolately, dark malty and fruity, slightly resinous, hoppy aroma, notes of dark chocolate, dark berries, some couverture, dark berry jam, a touch of morello, sweaty overtones. Taste is roasty, minimally ashy, dark malty and slightly fruity hoppy, notes of dark chocolate, Belgian chocolate, dry cocoa, hints of dark berries; more roasty than hoppy bitterness, minimally metallic overtones. Minimally creamy, watery texture, smooth and soft, simultaneously dry palate, very fine, dense, creamy carbonation. Well crafted, in a way more hoppy Stout than BIPA - good.

26/6/2024. Bottle bought at Victoria Inn Brewhouse, Roch. Pours clear hazelnut brown with a frothy off-white to beige head. Aroma is roasted, chocolate, malt, citrus, pine, coffee, ash. Moderate sweetness, quite heavy roasted bitterness. Medium body, smooth, average carbonation. Very nice roasty bitter fruited finish. Enjoyable.
