Bottle shared at chriso’s pre-Christmas tasting 2014 - London. Pours clear brown with a creamy tan head. The nose holds well toasted brown bread, milk chocolate and burnt toffee. Medium sweet flavor with earthy bitterness, bittersweet baking cocoa, dirt, burnt leaves. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation. Dry bitter chocolate dominates the finish with earth at the edges. OK.

Bottle from Oddbins, Blackheath. Dark brown pour with a beige head. Roast malt aroma with a splash of blackberries, citrus and some caramel notes. Licorice toffee flavour with a nice kick of bitter fruit. Quite nice.

Bottle split on the train to Tourist Town, thanks to Wingman, 19/11/14. Dark mahogany brown with a decent light tan covering that retains well. Nose is light charr, touch of dank hop, pissy tunes. Taste comprises liqourice, light roast, touch of pine, some light soap lets this one down a tad. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with earthy hop bitterness. Adequate CDA.
