Can from Aldi. Black body with a beige head. Patchy lacing. Aroma of treacle, golden syrup and Twiglets. Flavour of chocolate, cocoa powder and Marmite. Medium body with a smooth mouthfeel. Light fizz. Rich and sweet. Pretty good.

Can from Lidl or Aldi... It posted dark brown with a small beige head. The aroma is rich roasted malt, umami, dark chocolate, salted liquorice, rich roasted coffee, praline and light smoke. The taste is bitter - sweet, slick, oily, rich roasted malt, chocolate gateaux, some umami, salted liquorice, toothy, chewy, hint of alcohol and a decent hit of coffee with a smooth, toasty finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Rounded and pretty flavourful. A touch more carbonation would have elevated it, but it's decent anyhow.
