Can from Ocado. Crikey, suprised I've never rated the canned version. Anyway, aromas of burnt toffee, coffee, caramel, touch of smoke. Taste is a smoky sweet & lightly bitter mix of the above. Not bad at all, puts the draught version to shame.

330ml bottle, air side cafe at Chania Airport. A steady fawn-coloured head over a near black body, spotty lacing. Inviting roasted dark malty aroma, mid-dry. Earthy dark chocolate malty taste, with a note of liquorice. Rounded roasted ending, long lived. Fine depth to it. Nice. (26.06.2026).

Can. Quite thin, as expected, but it looks sexy. Gentle roastiness, a burnt touch and some bready hints. Quite decent for a non alcoholic version. 44438
