On tap at Brewdog - Reykjavik, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out bready malt, candi sugar, and pastry. Flavour brings out candi sugar, pastry, and bready malt. Sweet but not cloying; lots of pastry notes and candi sugar. Fun but not decadent or complex.

440 ml can. Pours a very dark brown with no head. Aromas of vinous blackberries and slick roasted malts. Flavors of oaky sherry, soy sauce, muted dark chocolate and oily toasted malts. An interesting curry spice finish - though maybe that’s from the glass…
