Jul 30, 2009 Bottle from Belmont Party.
Poured a clear dark brown color with a large frothy brown head that lasted with excellent lacing. Moderate to heavy roasted chocolate, dark fruit and alcohol aroma. Heavy bittersweet roasted malty flavor with a heavy bittersweet finish of moderate to long duration. Full body with a smooth texture and flat carbonation.
This is a very good beer.

Mar 15, 2008 Cask at the Leicester Beer Festival. Very dark and rich, this stout has a velvety chocolate quality to it, lots of roasted coffee flavour, earthy malt and hop bitterness. It’s also got a real boozy kick, giving an effect not unlike Scotch whisky. After this one, I knew it was time to head home.

Mar 10, 2009 Bottled. Small beige head with big bubbles. Beer itself is pitch back. The nose had sewer-like and unpleasant off flavor that luckily vanished soon. Aroma has sweetish milk chocolate, salty and smoky rostedness of dark malts, some tar and coal. Burnt coffee, dark chocolate and good hoppy punch in the finish. The flavor is salty and dark malty. Well roasted and bitter finish. Milk chocolate gives balancing sweetness. The alcohol is well hidden. The palate is full bodied, heavily roasted, thick, oily and low carbonated.
