Jet black pour, small beige head. First thing I got off the aroma was a punch of smokey Chipotle.... Then I look at the commercial description, and it all makes sense. Lots of smoke, and Chipotle. Very bitter, with some distinct pepper flavours, with the slightest tinge of heat. As it warms the cocoa comes through with a subtle sweetness.

500ml bottle from Marks & Spencer. Clear golden pour, fizzy white head, rings of lacing. Sweet, grainy aroma, biscuity. Taste is bready, crackers, light crisp bite at the finish that fades slowly.

Аромат по большей части хмелевой, весьма мягкий. Цвет золотой, почти прозрачный, пенка не большая. Вкус такой же мягкий и плавный. Легкий хмель и солод переходит в продолжительную но не сильную горчинку. В целом отличное начало в баре.

Second beer of Day Two at the Pendle Beer Festival 2025. Good body for a low strength hopped brew with hints of exotic fruits.

Beer three at the Pendle Beer Festival 2025. A third stout in a row, not thin but its low strength means it's more session than stated.

500ml bottle from Morrisons Online. Clear gold pour, thin white fizzy head. Aroma is malty, floral and a sharp citrus note. Light bodied but not watery, refreshing but dry, pale malts, with a decent fruity citrus, pine bitterness, a slight note of cardboard unfortunately. Not bad for the strength.
