Keg at Brewdoge Camden, 30/05/2025.
Black topped with a lasting khaki head.
Nose is roast malts, chocolate melt, maple syrup, brown sugar dusting.
Taste comprises mellow roast, molasses, raisins, chocolate, maple syrup, pecan pie.
Medium plus bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced boost offered.
Tidy enough pastry affair .. balanced well ... the maple syrup doesn't take over.

Keg at BrewDog Castlegate. It pours opaque jet black qith a small deept tan to brown head. The aroma is dark, decadent, unctuous, oily, dark roasted malt, charred wood, cacao nibs, toasted nut, pecan pie, burnt toast, heady notes of maple syrup, maple glazed donut, puff of pipe tobacco and treacle toffee. The taste is slick, oily, thick, chewy, bitter - sweet character, dark toasted malt, charred wood, toasted nuts, pecan, bitter walnut, cacao nibs, premium dark chocolate, molasses, umami, toasted sesame, liquorice allsorts, maple glazed donut and boozey warmth through a dark roasted and nutty finish. Fulsome body, moderate carbonation and slick/oily mouth feel. Coats your ribs. Not too sweet, has a good umami backdrop. Nice one
