Nov 27, 2009 Cask Handpump at the Bankers Draft JDW, Sheffield 14/11/2009
Pale hop aroma. Small beige head. Dark coloured smooth on the palate and hoppy with a little dryness and bitterness in a crisp full malt finish.

Nov 24, 2009 A Mes rate. Cask at Baker Street ’Sporks.
Black brown with a decent beige head and plenty of lace. Full of caramel and liquorice with some really good dark fruity notes. Slightly metalic in the finish but it’s got plenty of flavour to mask it. Very good light and drinkable Czech stuff.

Nov 19, 2009 The Quayside, Newcastle. VERY dark, almost opaque, It certainly has a rich coffee like aroma and palate, this rather overpowers the whole experience for me. A distinctive brew, not sure if I’d try again but glad I gave it a go. Went well with my burger & chips.

Nov 16, 2009 Cask in the alfread herring. Alround rating: Very stouty, big roasted malt character, black burntness, not much in the way of hop or fruityness. Not my scene.

Nov 16, 2009 Handpulled cask at JDWs Watford, Baker St. and Hatch End. Almost black with a beige collar. Sweet and malty with a gentle smokiness. Fairly complex with hints of coffee and dark chocolate but noticable saaz bitterness on the swallow. Very nice!

Nov 12, 2009 JDW Southport. I really liked this. Black, deep white head. Shouted liqourice & coffee with some chocolate. Lovely bitterness in the swallow which lasted long & was very pronounced. An excellent beer.If this is representative of the style I must try more.

Nov 12, 2009 JDW Rochester. Medicinal licorice with a bitter twang in the finish. Twiggy in places. A pleasant dark beer, though a bit soapy.
