That’ll be me 20K then @ ChrisO’s. Thanks to Danny. Opaque dark brown beer, good dark tan head. Palate is airy, semi dry and has decent fine carbonation. Rich dark malts, good dark chocolate. A little spice. Decent burgundy fruits, some dried fruits as well. Light semi dry finish. Mild alcohol spice lingers on.

Bottle split at Kenny 20K, thanks to Daniel, 15/01/16. Black with a decent tan covering. Nose is big on coffee grinds, chocolate, light spice, black pepper. Taste comprises more big coffee notes, toffee fudge, light charr, black pepper, roast malt, chocolate. Medium + body, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a sweet’n’sour tingle. Solid impy stout ... good coffee vibes ... didn’t pick up the barrel much but hey ho - would definetely revisit.
