On tap @ the Stockbridge Tap. Appearance - opaque black with an attractive head. Nose - not getting roasty stout notes, rather sweeter porter notes. Taste - more of the sweeter porter notes, then the chilli hits gently at first, but it builds. As you drink this, you get accustomed to the chilli hit though at the beginning it’s a little much for my taste. Palate - medium bodied, creamy and spicy in the middle and burning if elegant on the finish. Overall - good effort at a difficult style. It’s just that this particular kind of beer is not for me. The underlying base beer is lovely though.

Pigs Ear. Hazy amber beer with a good pale cream coloured head. Palate is light and semi dry. Very modest carbonation. Very light of dark malts, barely there. Insipid dark fruits and perhaps a touch of spice. Vaguely cinnamon in the post light dry finish aftertaste.
