Bottle from lowcostbeer.com. My first Belhaven beer surprisingly. Pours near black with small beige head. Roasted dark malt aroma, some licorice and sweet caramel. Not complex taste wise - dark malts and caramel to start, powdery chocolate comes in with light licorice leading to a semi-dry finish. Light bodied, easy drinking, good session quality. Decent.
