Keg at The BlackLab taproom, Barcelona, 09/03/24. Black with a khaki head that thins to spotting. Nose is old skool impy all over ... meaty, big molasses, charr, roast, umami, cacao nibs. Taste comprises treacle toffee, fruit cake mix, spice, molasses, roasted bite, chocolate, hint of coffee, liquorice. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a spike of alcohol. Decent enough old skool impy if a little 1D.
