Bottle from Vine & Bine, Solihull. Pours near black with some red hue and nice beige top. Aroma has roast, dry nuts, light brown sugar and oats. Taste is quite roasty with somewhere between charred wood and coffee, hint of blackcurrant, liquorice, pepper. Enough sweetness to balance. Mid bodied, quite drying. Very good stout.

330ml panda from LCB. Poursa black with small beige to tanned head. Aroma of dark malts, sweet crunchie bar, toffee. Taste of roasted malts, sweet toffee, chocolate, burnt honeycomb. Medium+ bodied, sticky, low carbonation, roasty bitterness. Sweet, rich and bitter. Maybe too rich although the flavours are good. More of a sipping type beer despite the strength.
