Black colour, small beigeish brown head. Aroma is liquorice, some coconut, mild coffee, cocoa, chocolate syrup, vanilla and some alcohol sweetness too. Flavour is a blend of the same, quite a pleasant , but sweet brew. Good sipper.

On tap at BPBW 2025. Friday early session. Pitch black coloured, medium sized brown head, coconut and light coffee in the nose. Coconut, coffee, vanilla and dark chocolate with notes of alcohol and discreet bourbon finish. Well done.

Tap at BPBW 2025, day 1. Very dark brown body, off-whtie head. Huge aroma, coffee, chocolate, lovely barrel notes, carob, vamilla. The taste shows a ton of chocolate and vanilla again, with some carob. Another winner from these guys!

On tap at MBCC 2025 (Blue session), pours black with a small tan head. Nose brings out coconut, cocoa, medium roast, and some woody barrels. Flavour is rich, with lots of coconut, cocoa nibs, and some bourbon. Rich coconut and cocoa but not particularly complex. Decent.
