50cl bottle (my first bottle from this relatively young brewery though I’ve had keg/cask before). Pours opaque black/mahogany with a very generous beige creamy head. The nose has freshly ground coffee beans and a green note which is closer to pistachios than anything else. As the head subsides there is a spice/vegetable note which I think is actually a mild green chilli pepper. The taste has a huge hit of that ground coffee and the green pepper and there is a nice layer of cream which glides over the top. The palate is medium to large in structure with a thick and creamy middle section texture and an elegant dry finish. Overall, this is a great beer - another excellent Scottish Porter.

On tap at Craft Beer. Clear brown beer, little tan head. Light softish palate, a little dry. Really sweet Black IPA. Peach and apricot dominate a little dark malt that is really only noticeable in the semi dry finish. Interesting and pretty drinkable. Again small tweaks could make this a fine beer!
