330ml can. Pours black with a brown head. Aroma of chocolate, caramel, nuts. Taste is very sweet, tons of chocolate, caramel, peanut, roasty bitterness, a little alcohol. Very full, thick body, smooth. Outstanding. Must point out this can was received for free - one of the initial batch that was recalled due to overcarbonation. No problems in this can whatsoever, honestly in awe that such a good stout was recalled!

(Draught at Craft Beer Co, Covent Garden, London, 9 May 2024) Black colour with brief, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with chocolate, caramel, toffee, coffee and vanilla. Malty, roasted taste with notes of caramel, toffee, coffee, dark chocolate, vanilla, a touch of salt and a balanced roasty bitterness in a warming and slightly sweetish finish. Full body, quite sweet. Rich, thick and warming. Far better balance than expected. Very nice.

Clear, deep gold with a thick white head. Lovely aroma with caramel, a bit of the booze and something floral. Flavour has that funky saison quality up front, very farmhouse as advertised, but the sweetness of the rum takes the edge off that a touch, with a little of the caramel too. Add in a dash of tart citrus, wood from the barrel and a lingering spiced warmth and you've got an interesting, nicely balanced saison.
