Can (small can) picked up from Hereford Beer House whereupon the lady behind the counter informed me it was a great beer but very sweet. I consumed at home, sat out in the garden in the company of Mum and Keith, Sunday 22nd June 2025 after a nice afternoon at Schönberg Volksfest, we had Pork Satay and Rice for tea. Pours shark eye black with a thin head that was rapidly consumed by the inky depths below it.. Aroma is mostly chocolate and honeycomb but it's also giving some boozy wafts. In the mouth it's a very sweet beer, tasting just like a liquid crunchie bar, which I guess was the aim. It's a little bit boozy but only very slight, tbf it doesn't taste 15%.

On tap. Pours black with no head. Aroma of chocolate syrup, toffee, maple syrup and slick roasted malts. Flavors of rich dark chocolate, Crunch bar, vanilla, and oily roasted malts. Chocolatey sweet. They nailed the chocolate bar. Very good.
