Cask gravity at Croydon Craft 2016. It pours black with a quickly dissipating tan head. The aroma is earthy, roasted malts, coffee grounds, umami and dark chocolate. The taste is rich roast, bitter - sweet, coffee grounds, chocolate, chewy malt, liquorice with a dry, roasted finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. A bit chewy perhaps, but pretty flavoursome.
