On tap at Uptown Freehouse. Pours black with a long lasting tan head. Coffee, plum, bit of dark chocolate, quite a dry coffee thing, lots of roast. Remarkably thick body given the strength though not quite as smooth as would be ideal. Very impressive.

On tap at Brothers Beer. Pours a dark ruby colour. Plenty of coffee, blackcurrant, roast notes. Really nice smooth body. Very impressive flavour and body for such a low alcohol beer. Excellent.

On tap at the Lumsden. Aroma is tart lime, a little sweet fudge and some bitterness. Flavour is sweet, with that little bit of tart citrus and a nice bitter finish. Nice.
