Keg at I&G Dundee. It pours near black with a thick, fluffy deep tan head. The aroma is toasty malt, rich roasted malt, umami, charred oak, bitter dark chocolate, dull smoke, powdered milk chocolate and some meatiness. The taste is dry, quite bitter, charred, umami, oak, cacao, plain chocolate, smoked malt, roasty, toasted action and light sweetness with a drying, toasty finish. Light body and fine, massaging carbonation. A bit thin and lacklustre.

On keg at I n G Lothian Road. Appearance - opaque black with a red chink around the bottom of the glass. Nose - chocolate and oats for sure. Dark chocolate and coffee. Taste - creamy chocolate, coffee and then smoky and tar, molasses finish. Palate - medium bodied, dry, roasty and slightly smoky finish. Overall - a bit challenging buy good.

(Cask) Clear mud brown, good big dense head. Subtle hop aroma. Medium body with gentle carbonation. Lovely taste with some rich toffee malt at the start and nice hoppy bitterness in the finish. Very nice.

Cask @ The Moon Under Water, Wolverhampton before Derren Brown. Golden amber pour, good off-white head. Maltloaf vibes, with toasted malt and light toffee touches. Ok.

Fluffy white head stayed on an unclear golden coloured body. Zesty citrus & wet cardboard aroma. Medium bodied, lively on the tongue with a clean back. Tangy citrus, grain, peach & lightly hopped tastes. Decent Quaffer.
