Can from Cornelius Wines. It pours black with a sturdy light brown head. The aroma is rich roast, bitter - sweet, umami, liquorice allsorts, smooth chocolatey vibes, dried fruits, toasted fruit cake, tunnocks teacakes and jammy wagon wheels. The taste is initially smooth, roasty, bitter - sweet, umami, liquorice, chewy, toothy, touch of soaky citrus, fragrant, floral, burnt toast, touch of alcohol warmth and slightly ashy with a smooth, roasty liquorice finale. Medium to fulsome body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Flavourful and rounded. Nice one.

Can from Appellation Wines.
Appearance - opaque matt black with a foamy beige head.
Nose - tar, burnt wood and molasses.
Taste - deep chewy toffee and into molasses, hazelnuts, so praline and still some burnt wood going on.
Palate - medium plus bodied. Creamy and sweet. Then a roasty finish.
Overall - great stuff!
