Dec 12, 2005 No idea who I stole this off of at my Christmas party. Sorry about that. Rather black colour. A stout always scores points if I can’t see through it and it has a nice head. Big roast and peanut oil aroma. Reasonably full body. Toasty, with light hints of nuts and coffee. Quite dry. Straightforward, but tasty, light stout.
