Reviewed from notes.
Bottle to English pint glass.
Appearance: dark brown close to black in the glass with a two finger eggshell white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: dark roasted malts, sweet grains, roasted nuts, sweet earthy scents, dark fruits, cocoa powder, baker's chocolate, caramel/toffee malts and some coffee tones
Flavor: wraps up the prior noted aromas to a fair bitter blend with a mild roasty and toasty quality sliding in underneath then a subtle crisp sweetness; finishes dark fruity/cocoa powder-y/sweet grainy
Texture: light to medium bodied, some sessionability to it. Pretty darn smooth along the tongue
Overall: a pretty nicely done and we'll say here a "dark ale" as respect to the brewer who doesn't call this a porter or a stout, just a fine dark ale and worthy of returning to.
