Can from the Grumpy Goat, Reading. Black with a light brown head. Blueberry, burnt malt, light coconut milk, some sourness, treacle, and a touch of spice (black pepper and ginger powder). Creamy verging on oily. Rather astringent, and drying at the end. I was looking forward to this one; it wasn't bad but it definitely failed to live up to my expectations.

330 ml can, bb 02/20. Thanks to Werckmeister!
Black body, with a big, creamy, lacing, brown head.
Aroma of coffee, melting dark chocolate, sweet spices, nuts, vanilla, some tobacco.
Tastes pretty similar. Medium, slick mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes a bit light, medium roasty, moderate sweet, a bit wooden, spicy, with coffee roast, dark chocolate, tobacco, cocoa powder, nuts, some vanilla.
Nice one. Good mix of roasty, sweet and spicy notes. Quite light though, almost feels a bit watery. Solid overall.
Score: 7 / 4 / 7 / 3 / 14
