Cask gravity at Pig’s Ear 2014. It pours near opaque darkest brown with a small beige head. The nose is rich, sweet molasses, earth, cocoa, salted liquorice, dried berry and syrup. The taste is bitter-sweet, earthy, liquorice, treacle, salted caramel, tar, burnt wood, chewy malt and booze. Fullish body and lowish carbonation. Rich, decadent stuff. Punchy, but not overly drinkable from this dispense method.
