Bomber bottle. Deep, dark brown with nearly no head. Surprising lacing with the tiny head. Smells of bitter chocolate and malts. Mouthfeel offers good carbonation with coffee overtones. As the commercial description said "balanced with a delicate hop bitterness" Is right at the finish. Well done by the BBC. I could drink a lot of this.

Bottle thanks to Cletus I believe! Pours black with a wood brown head that dissipated slowly to the edges. Aroma is a combination of roasted malts and dark chocolate with just a hint of sweet chocolate backing. Flavor is similar with dark chocolate and roasted with the finish becoming more sweet.

Bottled. A dark brown beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of malt, caramel, and straw, leading to a dry finish.

Courtesy of BA trade. Pours dark brown, mocha to off-white head. Aroma is malty, grainy, light hops with hints of dark fruits. Flavor, malty, nice chocolate/mocha and caramel palate. Some nutty, coffee milk touch. Medium carbonation, possibly some fruits. Drink this at near room temp, enhanced chocolate malts with faint bitter hops in teh finish. Really nice.

(Cask) Poured almost black with tan coloured and long lasting medium sized head. Aroma was of quite burnt malts and sweet liquorice. Body was full with low carbonation. It tasted of roastedness, liquorice, lightly ash, bitterness and sea water. Aftertaste contained burnt malts and bitterness. Very good one.
