Bottle. Beer Central, Sheffield. 6 months out of date. (Sorry Dave!). Deep, chestnut brown. Light haze. Slim ring of tan. Nose has unripe raspberry. Vine fruit. Dark chocolate. Bit of a Fry’s fruit chocolate bar thing happening. Not getting any coconut. Taste is vinous and lightly tart. Hint of dark chocolate sweetness. Light body. Fairly smooth. More of the tartness. Low carbonation. Tangy and vinous finish. Considering how long this has lurked in the fridge, it’s pretty decent.

4.6 Dark black.. Small tan head.. Meaty dark chocolate roast malts.. Tiny funk hints nose... Dark black.. Earthy dusty chocolate raspberry roast.. Again tiny funk.. Light woody dusty chocolate roast malts

Cask-conditioned at the Gryphon, Bristol June 2017. Dark brown in colour, with a thin, beige, head. Sweet berry fruit, some toasty malts, a touch of chocolate, leading to a gentle finish. One of a number of dark beers tried on the day, and the last impressive, although perfectly drinkable.
