Cask, Special;

The brewer from this famous brewery has visited Marston’s Brewery, Burton upon Trent, to re-create this classic beer, renowned by beer critics and drinkers throughout the world. Virtually black in colour, this is brewed using four varieties of malt (pilsner, Munich, brown and caramel), providing intense aromas of toastiness, chocolate, coffee and liquorice. It is strongly hopped to provide an impressive, bitter finish to this outstanding, complex imperial stout-style beer.

Hops used: Saaz

Cask handpull at Samuel Peto, Jdw, Folkestone. Black, virtually no head. Tar. It settles down into a choccy, dark Belgian choc bitter flavour. Takes a little bit of getting used to, but had far worse. Alcohol is well masked I thought. Quite interesting.

Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms, Bristol 16/04/09. Black with a deep tan head. Roast malt and chocolate truffle aroma. Flavour was sweet, with coffee, toffee and a decent dry finish. Good stuff.
