Can split at CBC Covent Garden, thanks to Leighton, 20/11/18. Black pour with a decent tan covering. Nose is charr, spice, umami, dark malts, cocoa powder. Taste comprises dark fruits, mellow roast, chocolate, toffee melt, molasses, light spice. Medium plus body, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Low end for the style spectrum and lacking depth for the ABV.

22oz bomber pours with a hazy dirty copper body that supports a thin off white head of foam. The aroma offers up grapefruit, lime, tangerine and some grassy hops. The taste delivers notes similar to the nose like bitter grapefruit and lime and then juicier tangerine like tangy citrus hoppiness. Nice stuff.
