500ml bottle bought as part of a delivery from the brewery and drunk at home. Dark brown, a little bit translucent with a small uneven film of beige head. Light aroma, some chocolate malt, hint of blackberry. There’s a creamy sweetness to the taste but it’s almost immediately challenged by a wall of intense hop bitterness. Bitterness stays on the tongue after the finish, with notes of underripe berries in the aftertaste. Low to medium carbonation. Enjoyable.

500ml bottle purchased as part of a delivery from the brewery and drunk at home. Very dark brown, only slightly translucent with a full beige head. Nice. Sweet chocolate on the nose, a touch of liquorice, suggestion of stone fruit. Tastes quite bitter, scratched malt, strong coffee grounds, medicinal character. Sits with intense bitterness in the finish. Full body with medium carbonation. Won’t be everyone’s cup of tea but I adored it.

500ml bottle as part of a delivery from the brewery and drunk at home. Mid- to dark brown, translucent with a small uneven beige head. The nose gives chocolate malt, slate, the tiniest note of stone fruit. Excellent balanced taste, creamy and bittersweet with a tinge of sourness of the finish. I’m getting chocolate and blackberry. Medium body, low carbonation. Simple and moreish.

500ml bottle purchased as part of a delivery from the brewery and drunk at home. Dark gold, clear with almost no head. Malty resinous aroma, a little bit of caramel, some orange peel, floral notes. Pretty nice. The taste is sweet, very malt-heavy, with bitterness in the finish. Some toffee in the finish. Body’s slick, not too heavy and flat, flat, flat. It’s got something, the maltiness is pretty sumptuous.

500ml bottle bought as part of a delivery from the brewery. Mid-brown and fairly translucent with a full khaki head and plenty of lacing. Big malty aroma, some sweet cooking spices, Ovaltine-y chocolate. Taste is sweet, and again very malty, leading to an astringent bitter finish. Notes of cola and ciffee syrup. Medium body with carbonation on the heavy side. Pretty simple stuff but quite good.
