330ml bottle from Beer Central, Sheffield - Deep back body, tan head. Nose of chocolate and liquorice, a bit of burnt wood smoke too. Sweet taste, bit milky and some chocolate. Quite enjoyable, but too sweet over the long run.

Bottle at Mish Mash in Penang. Thicker than expected black pour. Yeasty Belgian aroma with roasted malt and some lemony hops. Taste is okay - very tart and bitter in an unbalanced way. A bit disappointing.

Bottle from Appellation Wines. Appearance - amber with a decent head. Nose - chocolate orange, fruit salad Taste - creamy chocolate laden with fruit. Light honey. I’ve got it. Think of the chocolate in a box of chocolates which has that orange centre. That’s it. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long elegant finish. Overall - I’m a huge fan. Very decadent indeed.

Re-rating at Stockbridge Tap Tap Takeover. The keg version of this completely stole the show. It was worth a second pint. Previous rating on 15/04/15 = 7+4+7+4+15 = 3.7 Bottle from Appellation Wines. Appearance - golden with a proportionate head. Nose - grapefruit but not dry, more like it’s mixed with pineapple or mango. Taste - pineapple and grapefruit again. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - it’s certainly an assault by a tonne of hops.
