Bottle thanks to Kenny at level 42. It pours black with a thick tan head. The aroma is roasted malts, piney varnish, rich chocolate cake, toffee and some berry fruits. The taste is smooth, roasted malt, cocoa nibs, berry, fruit compote, peppery spice, light ash and charred wood with a dry, charred finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Decent cda.
