Belhaven Black Scottish Stout really is something completely different. Fresh roasted aroma and taste with a hint of coffee from the roasted barley used in the recipe. The addition of Chocolate malt adds a dark chocolate complexity. Simply hopped with Challenger to provide a clean low level bitterness. The dry hop character from challenger is kept to a minimum allowing the key roasted and chocolate flavours to come to the fore. Brewed using pure Scottish water and a unique blend of Scottish triple malts sourced from the finest locally grown barley.

Thin foamed beige head on a still black body. Malt & liquorice aroma. Medium to thin bodied, soft on the tongue with a sharp dry back. Liquorice, smoked, malt & berry tastes with a bitter piney finish. Quaffer

Pours mahogany tinged black into a shaker. Tan micro head with excellent retention. Pit fruit and smoke aromas. Fruity with pit fruit, smoked apple and mild funk front to back.

16oz nitro can from Hops & Bottles. Opens with a big hiss, pours out almost black, thin, robust creamy head. Weak chocolate aroma, sweet. Taste goes down hill from there. Taste of cheap milk chocolate, wax. Not enjoyable.

Decent, but on the weak side, lacking a significant roast presence and growing a tad too sharp and fruity in the middle. Finishes dry, though, and DIS always works as a nitro beer, even when the liquid itself is on the bland side.
