Cans shared on the train to Bristol. Courtesy of Paul and Dave - straight degenerates. Pours mostly clear deep orange with a creamy, off-white head. The nose holds lightly toasted malts, aged grass, pine. Light to medium sweet flavour, some toasted grains, grass, old citrus peel. Medium to full bodied with fine carbonation. Warming finish, with sturdy bitterness, dried orange rind, grass. So so overall. Probably a little faded, and also pretty old school.

Can at BD Castlegate. It pours darkest brown with a tan head. The aroma is sweet, sticky, toasty, powdered chocolate, vanilla and Mars bar. The taste is bitter - sweet, toasty, roasted malt, sticky, milk chocolate, powdered chocolate, vanilla, toffee, Mars bar, bit of coffee grounds and a touch of alcohol warmth with a sweet, milk chocolate finish. Medium body and average carbonation. Not a huge amount of depth and perhaps a touch sweet, but is way more drinkable than it should be.

Keg at BD Castlegate. It pours opaque jet black with a sturdy dark tan head. The aroma is rich roasted malt, sticky, sweet, big chocolate brownie character, milk chocolate, toasty, tobacco, toffee and walnut whip. The taste is slick, oily, decadent, bitter - sweet, rich roasted malt, loads of chocolate cake, peppery spice, light smoke, tobacco and coffee with a drying finish. Fulsome body and moderate carbonation. Perhaps errs on the sweeter side but this is a rather decent imperial stout all in all.
