Bottle thanks to Ashton McCobb. Touch lively. Pours hazy to NEIPA with a thin white head. Aromas of light funk, tart sour, faint fruit. Taste is woody, over-ripe gooseberry, sour finish.

Bottle thanks to the brewery. Appearance - hazy yellow with an off white thin head. Nose - dank and woody. Light farmyard and sweet gooseberry. Taste - sweet gooseberry and woody. Light spice. Palate - light to medium bodied. Sweetish middle and a zingy finish. Overall - not as fresh and zingy as I'd hoped.

Absolutely love this. Fruity, tart, vanilla notes and dry finish. Campervan did my favourite beer of the last VISBF, this will take some beating to be my favourite of this years. #VISBF2

Bottle from Appellation Wines. Appearance - deep brown with edges of red through it. Beige, thin head. Nose - wood, dried fruit, also fresh redcurrants, with a sour tangy and funky edge. Taste - again a combination of sweet and sour, raisins with tart funkiness. Palate - medium bodied at least, tangy sweet and sour. Overall - very nice. I think this will be very interesting in a year's time.

Can from Appellation Wines. Appearance - deep brown to black and opaque. Tan to fawn head. Nose - syrup, pancakes, hazelnut (pecan I guess). Not so much on the chocolate side. Taste - rich syrup and pancakes. And pecan and hazelnut for sure. Palate - medium to full bodied, creamy texture. Light roast on the finish. Overall - this is very good. Often, the structure of a pastry stout can be lacking compared to traditional stout at this level. This, however, is a happy departure. Lovely beer.

Keg at Bow Bar (as Leith Porter) - Dark near opaque black, off white top. Lots of dry roasted malts in the nose, straight and dry up front, roasted coffee finish. Decent.
