Pours very dark brown from the bottle (maybe black). No characteristic smell. light to medium body. Not the best thing from the brewery.

Bouteille-Stout noire avec un semblant de rouge crèmeuse, mousse épaisse. Goût de terre, d’épice et de malte rôti, une stout de deuxième catégorie mais agréable--Bottle-Deep dark red. Thick tan head. Earthy, spicy hop aroma with roast malt. Not a great one but ben plaisant!

Poured from the bottle, black in colour with a large rocky head. Not a strong aroma, marbe hints of grapes? A bit too bitter throughout the mouth and no really strong flavours coming through. Disappointing.

Pours a nice black coulour which can give u a head with a short swirl. Aroma is just burnt malt. Taste is similar with no distingwishing features sticking out at all, though a little fruit comes towards the end as with the aroma too. Juts another not so good ale from this brewary.

Bottle (from Sainsburys). Quite a thin beer with an indistinct roast malt flavour - seems like just enough to add colour. Entirely forgettable.

Smells burnt, leather, malt, liquorice, chooclate, hops and some pther stuff I can’t remember. Slimy and watery. Unfortunately. It doesn’t taste much. Too...spittly.

Light aroma: some malt and light hoppiness. Average size frothy off-white head produces good lacing but is fully diminishing. Flavour is lightly bitter with some sweetness in the finish, a little bland, but I enjoy strong flavoured stouts. Average length finish. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.
