Scopey (3380) - Croydon, Greater London, - APR 16, 2012
Bottle (gusher!), thanks to Leighton at his Beer, Bocce and Boozer tasting. It pours opaque dark brown, with a thin beige head. The nose is smoke, roasted malt, hint of vinegar/tangy fruit, caramel and spice. The taste is roasted malt, milk chocolate, liquorice, meat and caramel, with a dry finish. Medium body and very lively carbonation. Decent enough.

Wolfbass (748) - Firenze, ITALY - MAY 10, 2012
Ottima davvero questa stout, sia nel bel colore tonaca di frate, sia al naso classico dello stile; sia al palato, morbida e davvero gustosa. Nasconde bene anche gli 8 gradi.

Leighton (7179) - London, ENGLAND - APR 16, 2012
Bottle at the Beer, Bocce and Boozer Tasting, London. This bottle gushed and shamed me. Pretty explosive. It was in good shape flavor-wise, though. Pours black-brown with a creamy tan head. Light roast in the nose, some grass, earth and cocoa. Medium sweet flavor with dark chocolate, light soap and rubbing alcohol, subtle roast. Medium bodied with lively carbonation. Warm, semi-sweet finish with some heavy booze, dark cocoa and moderate roast. Decent beer overall. Could do with some fine tuning, but it’s decent as is.
