DruncanVeasey (6112) - NUNEATON, Blue Square Premier, Warwickshire, ENGLAND - APR 19, 2013
Bottle. Glossy mahogany with a huge moussey tan foam freckling the glass. Aroma filter coffee dregs, rotting leaf matter, molten black chocolate swirled in an ashtray. Flavour coal, burnt berries, high cocoa chocolate, deep persuasive smokiness lingering like a cigar. Black cherry, chipotle and malt loaf finish. Smoked, earthy and rich. Really good.

(Draught at MacKinlay’s Inn, Stockholm) Black colour with frothy, pale brown head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of freshly ground coffee, espresso, cacao, black rye bread and a touch of ashes.
