Cask at the Brewpub. Huge thanks to Ang for taking the time to rum me through these ones on a working night. Opaque dark brown- black beer, tiny pale tan head. Palate is light and smooth. Minerally fine carbonation. Tangy dark malts, touch of peppery vanilla and a trace of nutty sweet wood. More rounded off and a little sweeter than the solo vanilla treatment. Interesting again. Really enjoying these experiments.

Gravity dispense at Brew Wharf, massive thanks to Ang for the pour, 27/03/13. Very dark mahogony brown/light black with a thin bubbly tan head. Nose carries roast malt, molasses, touch of coffee, sweet vanilla notes. Taste comprises roast malt, light dusting of cocoa powder, dark fruits, molasses, carmalised sugars, sweet nutty tones tempered by dry wood notes. Medium bodied, moderate to soft carbonation, dryish finish. I enjoyed this one more than the base beer, a little sweeter, less lactose.

Gravity cask at the Brew Wharf, London - many thanks to Ang! While I did enjoy this one, it was my least favorite of the three Erebus treatments I tried on the night. The beer has some tangy wood notes, mellow cocoa, light earthy bitterness. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Hints of roasted malts in the finish, light vinous, dry woody tang, some spruce tree, restrained bitter earth. Fair.
