Bottle at the Bushel, Bury St Edmunds. Pours very dark brown with a bubbly tan coloured head. Aroma of hop, chocolate, citrus, light roasted coffee, malt and hints of blackcurrant. Medium sweetness, moderate roasted bitterness. Medium body, slight oily texture, average to soft carbonation. Sweet, chocolate finish with an odd bitter coffee/fruit mix. I'm a black IPA fan but this one didn't especially appeal as much as most.
