Bottle. Tall Boys, Leeds. Viscous pour. Dark brown in the glass. Ring of lasting, tan head. Nose has bonfire toffee. Red wine dregs. Tobacco. Soft, sweet smoke. Some date and plum. Taste is sticky sweet, with a vinous, smoky bitterness. Mouthfeel is a little thin, and maybe doesn’t match the beer’s first impression. Soft carbonation. Finish is vinous and smoky bitter. Pretty good overall, but I’m not sure the base beer is big enough to stand the barrel ageing?

On tap at Bundobust, Manchester, Thursday 30th March 2017 Smoked aroma, a little sausagey. Soft in the mouth, a little wood smoke rushes into the mouth, some hops leech out, but fruit and a caramel edge temper the smokiness, lovely. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.5

Black beer, beige head. Main aspect of both the scent and taste is earthy malt and bitter dark chocolate. A splash of zesty fruit but only a hint. Aftertaste has that and a touch of licorice too. Rich and drinkable.
