440 ml can picked up at elite wine Merchants in Earl's Court.Deep golden body, small foamy head, sticky lacing.Grainy, bready aroma with some spicy hoppiness. Taste moves the hops forward, instantly on the tongue, peppery. Creamy and slick, with the hops lingering well after you've finished.

Keg at German Kraft Beer. Light chocolate aroma. Dark and glossy. Thick light beige head. Light bitter. Chocolatey and malty. Medium bodied. Slick. Average carbonation. Long if low key finish. Tasty stuff. Not sure I would want to drink too many in one sitting but a characterful beer.

Keg at the Bottle Shop - Bermondsey. Pours deep brown with an extremely dense, creamy khaki head. Has a fairly nice cocoa aspect about it, mellow roast, dark fruits, raisins, prunes, light ash and earth. Light bodied with soft carbonation - seems it all has cocentrated kn the head, as with a nitro pour. Finishes with rounded chocolate character, soft roast, more dried berries. Not bad.

On tap at The Bottle Shop Bermondsey. Black beer lasting tan head. Attractive chocolate sponge aroma. Lighter chocolate in the mouth. Pretty good though. Love the aroma.

Keg at the Rake, 18/08/18. Light black with a decent tan cap that dissipates to a swirl. Nose is dark malts, tangy dark fruits, brown bread, grains, burnt toffee. Taste comprises tangy fruits, bitter dried berries, fruit loaf, light sour, lactic pinch. Medium bodied, fine to spritzy carbonation, drying close. Ok for style if a bit tangy ... unsure of the intent in that respect.

Keg at the Rake, 18/08/18. Golden orange with a decent off white cap. Nose is sweet malts, light perfumey dung notes ... kind of a Red Bull thing, bread dough, citric peel. Taste comprises citric sherbets, light bready malts, pineapple chunks, grassy, perfume, orange pith, splash of mango. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with mellow hop bitterness. Ok IPL if a touch overly perfumed.
