Can picked up from Shiny brewery fridges and consumed at Isobel and Jude's, Spond, Herefordshire, Tuesday 10th June 2025 in the company of Dad, Pauline, Isobel and Jude. Pours black with a mid beige, actually heading towards tan head that soon is a small filminess. Spices, chocolate, caramel and roasted malt dominate the nose. The taste following a similar path, but with the chilli providing a pleasant warmth. A regular size can on my own at the end of the evening wasn't a wise choice, as I couldn't finish it all, however it was a good beer.
