Bottle. Beer Central, Sheffield. Very dark, chestnut brown. Ring and film of dense, tan head. Viscous and leggy. Good looker. Nose has sweet liquorice. Blackcurrant. Some charred wood. Notes of ground coffee and milk chocolate. Taste has some black treacle sweetness. Turns woody, charred bitter. Medium to full body. Pretty smooth. Doesn’t feel the ABV. Light, charred wood bitter finish, with a dark fruit and chocolatey sweetness on the lips. Nice one.
