Bottle ordered from Inn At Home, Newbury. Aroma has rich malty chocolate and coffee, with underlying liqourice and sour vanilla cream. Pours opaque cola brown. Thick foamy microbubbled beige head. Medium-heavy bitter with a tart edge. Espresso, charcoal liqourice and gooseberries. As it warms it develops hoppy spice and citrus. Light bodied. Thin. Fizzy carbonation. Dry slightly astringent finish. Decent enough. The hoppiness makes me think more of a Black IPA than a lager yeast influenced Baltic Porter.

28/1/2021. Bottle bought direct from the brewery, part of a dozen mixed case. Pours unclear, dull amber with a lasting off-white head. Aroma is fruity, grapefruit, hoppy, malty, touch of spruce. Low to moderate sweetness, quite heavy bitterness. Medium body, fine carbonation. Bitter finish. Not bad and got better than first impressions, but seemed a little unrefined.
