500 ml bottle In a trade with Chalumeaux. 2018 Vintage. Great aroma of red grapes, plums, chocolate. Flavor is rich with Port flavors. Red wine influence compliments the stout perfectly. Nice deep level of depth.

Pitch black 500ML? from AFH. minimal head, espresso color. Smells pretty good. I do get the red wine aroma in here. hmmm yeah, nice. good red wine flavor, a little tannic, some old grape jelly, burnt charred fired oak, espresso and milk chocolate. Very tasty, love the lingering roastiness.

Keg at Brewdog Reading. Black with a thin beige heat and a light fizz. Chocolate syrup, obvious alcohol, coffee syrup, some cinnamon and white pepper. Quite sweet but with a dry finish. Decent, but I preferred the Brewdog Sea Weasel I had just before.
