Bottle from Black Toad. Appearance - dark brown to black with an olive sheen. Thin head and lower carbonation than normal. Nose - fresh raspberry. Light chocolate and coconut. Taste - raspberry and dark chocolate. Jot getting expected booze note. Palate - medium bodied, tart middle and bittersweet finish. Overall - a bit weird but good.
