Bottle. Dram Shop, Sheffield. 7.8%. Very dark brown. Thick, bubbly, lasting, pale tan head. Nose has treacle toffee. 60% cocoa chocolate. Stone fruit. Some coconut. Light smoke, says the missus. Hint of coffee. Taste is soft, smoky sweet. Light, woody bitterness. Super smooth mouthfeel, albeit a bit over carbonated prior to it settling down. Soft, sweet, smoky bitter finish. Lovely. I’ll be sad to see this brewer downsize, before he really got going.
