Cask at GBBF 2013. It pours very dark brown with a small beige head. The nose is roasty, toast, light smoke, chocolate, berry and light jam. The taste is mellow roast, earth, dark fruit, berry, mild chocolate, mild acidity and decent bitterness with a dry finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Smooth, easy-going and very drinkable. Decent.

On cask at Birreria Paradiso. A subtle version of the style, with an interesting roasted coffee and bitter chocolate flavor that does not hit you over the head.
