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.

(Bottle 50 cl) Dark brown, close to black, with a reddish hue and a small, brownish head. Dark, malty roasted notes with a solid dose of bitterness. Presumably brewed with some oats. Not the most impressive stout. 100405

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.

Dark brown, almost black. Small tan head that dissapear fast. Hints of coffee and chocolate nose. Same with the taste: lots of coffee and choclate. Not the most interesting stout i have tasted, but worth the dough.

Bottle from Metro Wines, Syston, Leics. Rather thin looking Stout, with no head. Tinny flavour, with a nasty aftertaste. Metal all the way, lacking thickness, or stickiness. Not great.

Reddish black, light brown head. Aroma is metallic. Flavour is slightly coffeish, though mainly tastes of cheap malt. Bad stout. Bottle.
