Opaque black brown beer. Light marmite nose. Zero carbonation. Slight soft palate. Tangy porter like dark malt. Lots of cocoa dark chocolate and a splah of marmite. Well joined up but let down by a total lack of carbonation.

[500ml bottle from Iceni brewery shop, Jim shared with me - cheers!] Black, small beige head. Hefty roasted malt flavour dominates, but there is a little chocolate and blackcurrant hidden behind. Like all Iceni beers, it finishes dry. Thin and disappointing.

Bottle @ RBESG Grand Tasting 2009. Deep dark brown color. Roastaroma with chocolate and vanilla. Soft roasty flavor with grapes and chocolate. Just a hint of in fection, but that works out fine in this beer.

Large 750ml cork/caged bottle that I picked up from Branthill Farm, Wells-next-the-Sea, Norfolk recently, consumed in back garden, 03-07-09 Pours black with small tan head. Light roasty nose. Taste is big on liqourice and is really quite roasty, touch of sourness to add a bit of bite but also quite sweet, a tangle of dark fruits also, its quite decent. A6 A4 F7 P3 Ov13 3.3

Black with a red hue. Small off-white head. Roast malt dominates the aroma which also has some fruit and molasses. Dry, burned charcoal flavour. Could do with a bigger body.
