Keg at Beer Merchants. It pours jet black with a medium tan head. The aroma is rich roasted malt, robust, loads of coffee, dark chocolate and some charred wood. The taste is dry, bitter - sweet, chocolate cake, loads of coffee, some acidity, burnt toast, chewy, toothy, burnt fruit cake, toasted nut, warming alcohol, umami, liquorice and coffee grounds with a drying finish. Full body, fine, foamy carbonation and oily mouth - feel. A bit toothy and chewy.

Bottle picked up from Cotteridge Wines, Cotteridge, Birmingham shared at Merton Beer Festival Saturday 24th February 2018 Pours black with a slim head. There is lots of coffee on the nose, it's coffee central. In the mouth coffee, chocolate and a creaminess but again the coffee dominates. It isn't a complex Imperial Stout but it is a very good one, love this, rich, indulgent coffee monster. A8 A4 T9 P4 Ov17 4.2
