A dark, dry stout brewed using pale, crystal, chocolate and wheat malts together with un-malted roasted barley. Golding and Bramling Cross hops are used for the bittering, giving a fruity edge to the dry bitterness that comes from using highly roasted malts. Late additions of Bramling Cross hops to the boil add another dimension to the aroma of the beer.

Bottled, from The Scottish Real Ale Shop, Kilmahog. Black, firm head. Aroma of dark chocolate and coffee. Dryish with solid body and well rounded mouthfeel. Lightly peaty with lots of espresso and dark chocolate. Salmiak bitter finish. Tasty stuff!
