It certainly looks the part, dark with a thick creamy head, but has next to no aroma but does come with a subtle taste.

Very dark brown colour. The maltiness is more sweet than bitter. Only a light roast flavour. Pleasant but light on flavour.

From nitro tap. Pours dark brown with a deep amber glare and a creamy tan head. Aroma is roasted dark malty and smooth roasted. Mild bitterness lurking through the dense malt flavours. Dry yet no really bitter into the finish.

Draft @ The Gullivers, M4 Manchester. Pours a dark ruby color with a longlasting creamy off-white head. Has a slightly roasted malty aroma with some nutty hints. Roasted malty nutty flavor with some hints of chocolate. Has a roasted malty finish.
