Tap @Brewdog Camden. Black with creamy offwhite head. Weak roasted aroma. Sourish, fruity and sugary sweet roasted flavour. Not interesting.

Bottle at Craig’s. Pours clear dark brown with a thin tan head. Aromas of brown malt, light bourbon, light roast. Taste is more of the same, well integrated. Roasty finish.

Bottle split at LKS ’Beers of London’ Tasting, high up, thanks to Kenny 10/12/14. Light black with a decent beige/light tan covering. Nose is well toned bourbon - not in your face, dark fruit, spice, dark chocolate, toffee fudge. Taste comprises brown sugar, subtle bourbon, chocolate, dark toffee, sweet licks, subtle BA woody tones. Medium + body, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Solid enough BA impy, well balanced.

Bottle from Pigs Ear 2014. I allowed Keane to talk me into buying this. Black beer thin tan head. Vanilla bourbon and chocolate malt aroma. It’s actually not bad. If you want a beer that tastes of vanilla and tastes of bourbon. A bit uncouth but quite a drinkable impy stout. Anyone else get a ghee thing going on? Sweet. Vanilla. Just all over the place to be honest. Ugh. After initial well being this is not a happy beer. Struggling to finish it.

Tasting at Leighton’s Flat. Opaque dark brown beer, good mid tan head. Palate is airy with decent fine carbonation. Semi dry. Sweet dark malts. Smooth bourbon, just a little alcohol spice. Sweet dark fruits. Dark chocolate streak. Light dry finish brings a whisper of banana ester. A sweet and flavoursome RIS and pretty drinkable.

Bottle at Leighton’s, thanks to Ol Mitchy. It pours near black with a thick tan head. The nose is rich, intoxicating, roasty, marshmallow, nougat, charred wood, vanilla and toast. The taste is bitter, rich roast, toast, sweet coffee, vanilla, warming alcohol, prickly pepper, earth and cocoa with a warming finish. Medium-full body and moderate carbonation. All comes together rather well. Nice offering from OME.
