[33cl can from Beer52.] A deep tawny brown pour, almost black, with a loose beige head; aroma of roasted nuts and caramel; a smooth malty caramel taste, not too sweet with a touch of spice; then a dry finish with the black tea coming through. Elegant.

330ml can. Pours near black with frothy beige to tanned head, excellent retention and lacing. Aroma has a sweet mellow herbal and tea with some caramel dark malts. Taste has an undercurrent of tea and lemon with a herbal bitterness running through with caramel and biscuit, occasional note of blackberry. A subtle complexity assuming that's not an oxymoron. Near medium bodied, a good soft carbonation which works well here, session quality. Excellent balance. A welcome surprise.
