330ml can, beer gift from BeerViking, shared with Finn on a train bound for Birmingham. Good looking with off-white head, leaving rich lacing on the glass, almost black body. Promising plain coffee nose. Dark malt-forward taste profile, coffee grounds joined by liquorice. Smoothly roasted ending, chocolate-coffee. Like it. (Train from Euston London to Birmingham New Street, 13.02.2023).

Short lived beige head left a spotty cover & collar with lots of lacing on a dark brown body. Ashtray, burnt & tobacco aroma. Smells like a 1970's tap room. Medium bodied, foamy with a smoother clean back. Burnt, roasted, malt, biscuit & liquorice tastes with a light citrus finish. Drinkable.

Keg at The Noose & Monkey. It pours ever so slightly hazy golden - yellow with a bubbly white head. The aroma is soft, fresh, quite juicy, tropical fruit vibes, tangy citrus, orangey, grapefruit, orange squash and a touch of pine. The taste is crisp, dry, snappy, quite clean, pleasing hit of bitterness which lingers, pine needles, pithy, zesty, lemon - lime, grapefruit and that's about it. Finish is dry and fruity. Average body and moderate, fizzy carbonation. Actually really not bad at all. Very drinkable.
