Bottle at mum and dads, from Callans, 17/01/14. Light black with a good sized tan head that dissipates then stays for the parteee as a covering. Nose is vinous, oaky wood, dark berry fruit, tannins, toffee, light whisky strains, burnt sugar, touch of runner, cherry skins. Taste comprises bitter dark fruits, lactic ring, burnt caramel, vinous, Black Forest gateaux light. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying closure with subtle BA notes. Ok stout but a little immature for a BA example, lacks any real depth for 7%.
