Cask at 9A Holyrood. Light and clean coffee stout; roast coffee bean aroma, light choco taste with bitter crisp finish.

had on CasK! .. in Manchester .. @ Port Street .. . a very solid beer all around .. . deep brown black .. mild foam .. . coffee roast with a smooth mouth .. . very tasty brew .. . . I keep a gas can full of gas in my trunk in case I ever need to burn the evidence. Or the car. Or just a random log that doesn’t look right.

330 ml bottle.
Pours a black colour with a thick creamy head. Aroma is very strong with pungent wood, roasted malts and hay. Flavour is very strong and pungent with roasted coffee, sour berries, ash, sharp citrus and some floral notes. Light bodied, slick mouthfeel and a dry, lingering pungent finish. Not very balanced.

330ml bottle. Darkst brown colour with huge, creamy, fairly lasting, moderately lacing, tan head. Port aroma, some dark fruit, fruit parings, hints of herbal hop. Taste is dry dark malty, some dark fruit, underlying coffee note, minimally sourish touch, bone-dry finish; lively carbonation.

Cask-conditioned at the Barley Mow, Bristol 18/5/2013. Dark brown with a decent, off-white head. Big, black coffee notes, a hint of chocolate sweetness and a dryish finish. Good.

33 cl bottle.
Pours pitch black color with a large, frothy beige head. Aroma is quite intense with espresso, some ashy chocolate, roasted malts and some dark fruit notes. Quite appealing aroma actually. Flavor of ashy chocolate, dark fruits, some caramel and coffee notes. Slick and somewhat watery palate. Like the coffee though.
