Can. Clear red brown with a large pale beige head. Aroma of stewed fruit, singed caramel, some citrus. Then it's much drier and more bitter than expected with almost burnt caramel, stone fruit and a quite harsh twiggy bitter and acrid finish. A little better as it warmed a bit, but not for me.

0.44l can at Beer Bank, thx John! Pitch black body, tan head. Creamy yet dry chocolatey, roasty aroma. Lean, dry taste, sweetish chocolate, cocoa, bit oily, not much peppermint but a very nice stout!

Can. Clear, rather orange amber with a fluffy white head. 3+ Aroma of blood orange, spiced bread. 8- Clean, nudging up on empty - with slightly crusty bread that does meld with citrus and a little resin. Bitterness is - in the modern way - a bit tentative. Spices at the end too. A trifle maybe, but tasty enough.

500ml bottle pours out cola brown amber color topped with fizzy sand head. Nose is nice floral barrel funk some berry cherry combo. Taste is more of the nice berry cherry combo floral notes and plenty funky tartness.
