Bottle from the brewery – Pours a clear deep dark brown colour with a large frothy tan head. The aroma is roasted malts, caramel and a mineral tang. A sweetish taste, well roasted malts, bitter chocolate, caramel flavours with a burnt woody bitterness and a warming alcohol finish. Medium bodied, lively carbonation.

Bottle at home in London - picked up at Utobeer. Pours rich, clear dark brown with a large, frothy latte head. The aroma holds lots of dry, well roasted malts, a good bit of ash, some coffee grounds. Medium sweet flavor with a bit of bittersweet chocolate, burnt leaves, light alcohol, some cherry liqueur, charred wood and grass, some chalky baking cocoa. Medium bodied with average to lively carbonation. Finishes with lingering, heavily roasted malts, some stony dryness, more torched earth, wood, some dried and lightly leathery dark fruits and lasting bitter dark chocolate. Pretty well done overall. Some overall hard water minerality. Decent depth. Fairly drinkable for the ABV. Nicely done.

Bottle from Theatre of Wine, Greenwich. Dark brown pour, light whisper of a tan head, soon varnishes like an old oak table. Rich aromas in there, licorice toffee,dark chocolate and butterscotch. Flavours of dark chocolate, licorice and coffee. Quite a vinous feel. Long alcohol burn. Nice dry roast finish. In essence low on carbonation but very flavoursome indeed.
