Bottle shared in Hazlemere - picked up at Pigs Ear. Pours clear, black-brown with a modest, foamy beige head. Medium sweet flavour with compelling fudge character, sturdy roast, mellow ash, vanilla, toasted toffee, black coffee. Medium to full bodied with fine carbonation. Light warmth in the finish, more sturdy roast, dark fruits, raisins, toasted marshmallows, subtle earthy bitterness. Solid old-school BA stout.

Rocky chocolate coloured head left a collar on a near black still body. Huge boozy aroma with dark chocolate & whisky. Medium bodied, very smooth with minimal carbonation & a silky back. Dark chocolate, malts, berry, whisky & demerara tastes with huge tangy boozed up finish. Proper sipper
