Bottle thanks to Lorna, picked up at Beer Central, Sheffield. It pours black with a thick tan head. The nose is bitter - sweet, mild chocolate, rich roasted malt, creaminess, coffee and some jammy dark fruits. The taste is pretty bitter upfront, charred wood, hard roasted malts, milk chocolate, cacao nibs, burnt toast, liquorice, alcohol hit and some dark fruits with a lingering bitter - dry roasted finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Pretty bitter as one my expect from the steel city guys! Works rather well.

Bottle from Cotteridge Wines; dark opaque brown pour with a thin tan head, aroma has sweet molasses and a hint of liquorice, taste has a hint of vanilla, sweet chocolate, some roast, dark fruits.
