New Year's Eve 2025 Beers #3 of 3. Last beer of 2025 and have gone for my favourite style to finish the year. Black with a diminishing light head. Easy for strength and easy textured crisp tasting stout, unfortunately the sum of these parts seems to keep the brownie influence and flavours low.

Can bought at Sainsbury's, Knaphill. Opaque cola brown. Not overly thick of appearance. Thick frothy foamy light beige head. Aroma has cacao and Horlicks style malts. Berry edge provides sourness but overall rather sweet. Flavourwise it's slightly odd. It's bitter - strong coffee with a nod to cacao. Tangy sour berries. A weird starchy base. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Flat-soft carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Just doesn't work for me and not really getting anything reminiscent of chocolate brownie in terms of flavour or aroma. Poor show.
