330ml bottle. Dark brown colour with small, creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, beige head. Roasty and slightly chocolately, dark malty aroma, hints of pumpernickel, treacle, chocolate, some coffee, whiffs of blueberry, metallic overtones. Taste is roasty, chocolately, dark malty and slightly yeasty fruity, some residual sweetness, notes of dark chocolate, milk chocolate, some pumpernickel, blueberry, a touch of plum butter, treacle, cherry, some herbal, bitter hop in the last third, maybe a touch of cascara; bitter roasty and bitter hoppy finish with fruity basic layer. Dissolved sugar enriched, watery texture, slightly dry palate, medium, mildly prickly carbonation. Light but sporting a wide spectrum of flavours - not bad.
