Cask gravity at GBBF 2015. It pours darkest brown-black with a light tan head. The nose is smooth, rich-roast, coffee, bitter-sweet vibe, bubblegum, umami, chocolate cake and dark berry/fruit. The taste is rich, oily, roasted malt, toast, charred wood, tar, pepper, chocolate and burnt cake with a dry, roasty finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Pretty punchy and flavoursome.

Cask gravity at GBBF 2015. Black beer. No head. Chocolate and liquorice. Very roasty. Dark chocolate. Some dark cherry skin. Turned out ok.

This was poured into a nonic pint glass.
The appearance was basically a slightly hazy burnt orange color with no head nor lacing.
The smell had a sweet citrus to bitter citrus over top of sweet caramel malts.
The taste was mainly sweet through the hops and malts. There’s a decent background of bitterness there, it’s just not substantially over the top. There’s a lingering sweet hops to malts aftertaste.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fairly decent sessionability about it. Carbonation runs like an AIPA, substantially smooth enough to fulfill a nice bitterness.
Overall, nothing bad, it’s just nothing over the top. Could make a decent grilling beer.
