A traditional Stout, black in colour with a light brown head. The roasted barley in the grist, makes this a wonderful rich and roasty brew.

Nice roasted aroma but not overstated and similar character in its flavour. Medium bodied. Black with a small creamy head.

Hand pulled pint in The Cock Hotel, Wellington on 2nd Feb 2012. Really black body, jet black with no hint of redness or ruby hints: this is black. The thin tan coloured head lasted the whole pint. The nose was of roasted dark chocolate on a bed of peat with a scattering of berrys thrown into the oven as well. The taste follows the smells only with a drier feel, this is a fairly bitter tasting Stout actually, for roasted think almost burnt chocolate malts and you are there. The body wasn’t as heavy as the flavours suggest maybe, but it suited the feel correctly: a nice Stout.

Cask handpull at Wenlock Arms. Black with thin tan head. Very choccy, very bitter from the roasted malt. Some dryness. Slightly smokey. Good stout.
