Draught pint at Tønne, Leicester. Can't believe I've never had this before. Almost black with only a sliver of light getting through and a small beige/khaki head. Ashy aroma, a good bit of roast malt and touches of liquorice. Bittersweet taste, more liquorice in the mouth than in the nose. Very dry finish. Light body with medium carbonation. Guinness is the famous one but maybe just maybe this is closer to the bone.

Sort med fyldig lys brun topp som varer lenge. Aroma; malt, kaffe, mørk sirup, humle, lyng. Smak; malt, karamell, sjokolade, kaffegrut. Sterk men kort smak, og litt..uvariert til å være så mørk. #smakt 20.juni.

Finally had this... Keg at Wenlock Arms. Aroma has vague... wrm.. clay. Dark. V. Dark. Thick foamy off-white head. Slips down by virtue of some sourness (bweries) and creaminess. Medium bodied. Slick to oily. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Another flavourless macro stout... actually need to try again ut think I preferred the G one.

Half pint at the Black Lion in Brighton is a clear gold with a ring of sudsy head. Nose has apples... some sulfur, some candy. Flavor loses the sulfur and its pure apple and candy. Off dry finish. Decent enough.

Draft @ the local Saint Patrick’s Day event while feeling mightily embarrassed for that group of desperate housewives trying their equally untalented and uninspired hands and feet at line dancing. Clear dark red with an ok beige head. Aroma of lemons, malts and caramel. Taste of malts, lemons, caramel and cherries. Low bitterness. Strong carbonation. Watery and quite dull. Suited the occasion.
