Bottle from Bottle Cap Beer Shop. It pours darkest brown, near black with a small beige head. The nose is toasty, earthy roast, liquorice, dull smoke, light treacle and some ash. The taste is quite light, earthy roast, burnt toast, liquorice, lightly ashy, plain chocolate and earth with a dry, toasty finish. Light - medium body and fine carbonation. Simple low abv stout. Not too bad, if a little pedestrian.

Bottle (4.7% ABV) from Deeside Drinks Emporium. Deep amber body with a medium off-white head. Steady carbonation. Good lacing. Aroma of caramel, wood, pot puri and orange peel. Flavour is floral with notes of tangy orange, dried fruits and a faint peppery spice. Medium body with a watery, slightly oily mouthfeel. Soft fizz. Enjoyable. I’d like to try this on cask.

500ml bottle: BBD 28 Oct 2015. Poured into a vase shaped ’Old Speckled Hen’ badged pint glass at home on 19 Jun 2015. Shared with no one. Slight haze to the rusty brown body, on top a smooth beige blanket that hung around and gave off some impressive lacing. Hops all the way here, yet with a semi-sweet malty molasses backbone. Bitter, yet not overly so, fruity, yet not overly so, dry, yet not overly so. Really liked it, good depth of body and flavoursome in a hoppy sort of way: hoppy aftertaste lasts and lasts. Impressed.
