Cask at CBC, Covent Garden on 2nd November 2025. Intensely dark sepia black with tan foam and spot lacing. Rich, roasty malt aroma with dark chocolate and woodsmoke. Rich and intense roast malt profile in-mouth with smokiness, fiery spices and dark chocolate. A long, satisfying finish of roastiness, fire and dark bitter chocolate. Engaging mouthfeel and a full body. Absolutely exquisite.
