Cask. Somewhat murky brown-black body with minimal beige head. Aroma is moderately sweet, coffee, some roast, coffee grounds, some bittersweet chocolate, light burnt. Taste is moderately sweet, coffee, bittersweet chocolate, some cream. Medium body, some creaminess. FWIW, I had this the second night it was on cask and when I shared it with Travlr, who had tried it the first night, he felt that the aroma was off compared with the previous night.

Thanks for this one, travlr! Pours a dark dark brown, with just a bit of head. Smell is coffee and roasted malt. Or maybe just roasted coffee. Taste is coffee and cocoa, with toastiness. It’s like breakfast kind of, right? Nice.

Cask at Churchkey. "San Sebastian" Colombian Coffee. Poured a near pitch black - tiny bubbly off-white head. Aroma was full-on coffee notes. Flavor was bitter coffee, touch of roasted malts. Was very smooth, creamy even. A very amazing blend.

Cask served by the monks at Churchkey. Almost black, small brown head. Aroma of coffee grounds and cocoa. Taste is Starbucks plus cocoa. Nicely done.
