Roasty, boozy, coffee

Keg at Dogtap for the AGM It pours opaque, jet black with a small, fluffy beige head. The aroma is rich roasted malt, bitter - sweet, heady notes of coffee, coffee cake, cacao nibs, dark chocolate brownie, mocha, red fruits and jammy wagon wheel. The taste offers some bitterness upfront, slick, thick, dark roasted malt, decent bitterness, sticky, burnt pine, plenty of coffee, espresso, dark roast, umami, liquorice, tannin, dull acidity, spice, warming, boozey, berry and blueberry muffin which is pretty restrained with a dry, dark roasted finish. Fulsome body and average carbonation. Really nice depth of flavour. Never too sweet or intense. Fun stuff.
