sm89walt (168), Norwich and Canterbury, Norfolk, England May 3, 2008 Cask - Fat Cat, Norwich. Very dark brown colour with a thin and sparse off-white head that did leave a nice lacing. Roasted chocolate and malt aromas. Flavours of molasses and coffee with some grapefruit undertones. Perhaps a bit thin in terms of mouthfeel for a stout, but otherwise this is a rather tasty brew.
