Can picked up from Lidl Norbury and drunk at home in London (09/08/2022) - black with a tan head. Dark sweet and roasted malty, big maple and caramel sweetness, cocoa and light ashy roast, medium plus body, sweet maple infused lingering malty finish. Good stuff.

Can from Lidl Supermarket, Littleborough. Near black, although hazy brown on its last pour into the glass, also with a small head. A gritty enough little number in the palate, it's actually fairly easy textured for its strength, although its strength is also notable within the ale. There's a light mix of maple and chocolate behind this in both aroma and taste.

[44cl can from Lidl, Crowthorne.] A glossy peaty brown pour with a tight beige head; chocolatey aroma with a hint of syrup; smooth in the mouth with a dry chocolate malt taste; then a dry finish with well roasted malts and well hidden alcohol.

440ml can from Lidl. Near black in colour, with a tight, beige, head. Plenty of caramel notes and milk chocolate, with some balancing toastiness before a rich finish. Enjoyable.

0,44l from can at the brewpub. BB 27.09.2022. Black color, small coffee colored head. SMELLS of soy sauce, toffee, berry notes, marzipan, nutty. Decent smell. Full body, no carbonation. Tastes soy sauce, marzipan, nutty, cocoa, light cocoa liqueur. Finishes lightly sweet with notes of cocoa, marzipan and some soy sauce notes. Did not like this much at first, lots and lots of soy sauce (judging by BB date this could be a tad old). Gets a lot more marzipan and cocoa forward when warm. Nice overall
