On handpull at the Lumsden. Pours opaque black with a thick lingering coffee colour head. Aroma is sweet chocolate, little creamy, lots of toast, little savoury earthiness. Flavour is initial milk chocolate into a salty umami earth character with plenty of toast and a little charcoal. It’s thick, creamy and luxurious and works perfectly on the hand pull. Really quite a lot going on, in a very good way.

500ml bottle. Cloudy, yellow-ish, deep golden colour with average, frothy, fairly lasting, minimally lacing, white head. "Unfiltered" aroma, notes of husk, protein, grass, some lemon, a touch of orange zest. Taste is quite bitter hoppy, grassy, slightly citrusy, hints of orange zest, a strawy and minimally chalky touch, pale malty background; long lasting bitter finish, lively carbonation. Very refreshing. Good.
