Bottle via the OGV. It pours jet black with a decent tan cap. The aroma is rich roasted malt, toasty, bitter - sweet, chocolate, coffee grounds, light ashy vibes and maltesers. The taste is initially dry and toasty, bitter - sweet character, rich roasted malt, coffee grounds, cocoa nibs, powdered chocolate, some umami, liquorice, peppery spice and woodsy character with a dry, roasty finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. All comes together rather well. Better body that I had expected. I imagine this would taste good on cask.
