Black, thin head. Classic stout aroma - malt, chocolate, dark fruits. Taste follows suit. Chocolatey and spicey. Superb stout, amazing what they can do at 4.4% imdownthepub (3995), Banbury, Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, England Mar 25, 2007 Cask conditioned at Banbury Beer Fest 07. Black with Ruby hue, tan head. A good black stout that should be copied by other, more famous names. Rich burnt gristy body, plenty of coffee and chicory hints, good roasted finish.
