Keg at MK VHX, 12/12/18. Pitch black with with a well presented dirty tan cap. Nose is a little thin ABV considered, mellow roast, dark chocolate, toffee, dried fruits. Taste picks up comprising mellow roast, toffee, chocolate, dried fruits, aniseed, light black peppery spice, blueberry. Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Ok stout if falling a tad short on the depth expected of an 8% number.

Can, huge thanks Sandi ST, shared with him and Hrabren. Nice, clear, pale golden body, lively carbonation, lasting white head. Hop-heavy but elegant aroma, citrus fruits, light gummibears, clean maltiness. Taste... flowery, gummibear touches... reminds me of Lab's Centennial Ace in the hop profile somewhat, though this is clean and dry AF kinda unlike that one. Slightly too dry and bitter with the hop remains aggressive in the throat, oh well, not bad!
