Opaque black beer - good tan head. Spritzy dark malt nose with a touch of spearmint. Softish palate, good fine carbonation, Lightly sour dark malt with a trace of roast and a trace of chocolate. Nicely judged spearmint, not overdone. Minerally finish. Alright! A bit different!

Botella. Pitch black colour. Medium sized creamy steady light brownish head. Roasted malt , chocolate and mint in the aroma. Good mouthfeel. Flavour has roasted malt, mint, chocolate and is rather sweet. Bitter roasty tart like finish.......

Bottle that was picked up in a mixed box from the pub adjacent to the brewery consumed 04.03.11 There is a hint of sourness on the nose with a little yeastiness and chocolate. Once this has settled in the glass a little white, more chocolate comes through albeit with quite a fruity bite. I don’t get the spearmint. There is a milky creaminess, good fruity tang, really getting quite milky chocolate now. Pours dark brown with a little haze and a beige head. A6 A4 T6 P3 Ov13 3.2
