Can shared thanks to Santa minutemat. Black with light brown head. Lots of roasted malts, light mineral, wood, light raisins, faint maple, ginger, good amount of fruity coffee, some cassis. It’s very light on the smoke and maple, but definately a coffee stout. No real sweetness, medium bitter and very light acidity. Light bodied. Nice!

330ml can @ Chez Sophie. Pours a misty gold, large white head. Aroma throws up pale malts and fruity hop shades. Has a confident hoppy character with a soft Belgian yeast influence tucking you into bed on the finish. Some juicy citrus coming into play. Yes this is good.

330ml can @ Chez Sophie. Pours murky amber, frothy off-white head. Aroma is sweet, luscious exotic fruit. Taste is smooth, almost oaty smooth, with pineapple, papaya, peach, mango, banana. Lacks a little clarity, and peters a little on the finish, but it’s a decent fruity IPA.

330ml can @ Chez Sophie. Pours hazy gold, large frothy white head. Fresh aroma of soft peach melba and exotic fruits. Taste is similarly exotic with papaya, banana, peach, mango and a nice bitter tingle. Not sure if this is brewed with gooseberries, but there is a good fruity finish to this. Very good.

330ml can @ Chez Sophie. Pours black, with a soft tan head. Aroma is strong coffee with a light sweetness. Taste is heavy coffee roast and bitter charred wood that initially belies its strength but slowly dries out on the finish. Smooth with a fairly light body. Very little maple syrup presence unfortunately, but still a rather delicious coffee stout.

Bottle thst Jim bought from Fire & Ice in Amroth- cheers for sharing! Clear amber with a negligible white head and a light fizz. Tropical fruit and spice. Juicy. Good resinous mouthfeel, great balance. Really good brew.

50cl bottle brought back from Tenby by my brother, ABV 5.5%. A glossy drck brown pour with a billowing pale chocolate coloured head; fruity chocolate aroma; rather thin with a fruity chocolate taste - Cadbury’s Fruit & Nut perhaps; then a slightly tart finish with a touch of rum; before a sweeter milk chocolate finish with a trace of vanilla. Pleasant, needing a little more weight.

Can at home in London - pours unclear orange-gold with a billowing, frothy white head. The nose holds crackery malts, light dried caramel, earth, old citrus, pine, caramel. Light to medium sweet flavour with more caramel, crackers, faint oily pine, old orange, grains, bread. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Finishes with more grainy malts, ripe citrus, faded pine, caramel and crackery notes. Overall, not very good. Maybe not at its freshest, but I don’t even detect the shell of a good beer here.

50cl bottle from the brewery, thanks to my brother. A murky pale chestnut pour with a billowing beige head; insipid malty taste with a touch of citrus and some sour apple; and an unpleasantly sharp and acidic finish. Very poor.
