Bottleshare at Leightonโs Gaff. Opaque dark brown beer, good dark tan head. Palate is dry and has modest fine carbonation. Thin dark malts still bring a little roasty bitterness. Bitterish dark fruits on the light dry finish. Bitter linger. Quite a bitterish stout then but otherwise unremarkable.

Bottle shared in London - thanks to Kenwise. Pours black brown with a bubbly, beige head. The nose has some toasted licorice, scorched earth, cocoa, ash. Medium sweet flavour with lots of burnt wood, bitter chocolate, more earth. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Finishes with more torched wood, baking cocoa, dried leathery fruits, woody dryness. Pretty good stuff.
