Brock
Thornbridge Brewery

440ml can.
L: Black with one fingers of white of tan cream head that lasts to the end.
S: Dark chocolate.
T: Flavour is muted, compared to the aroma. Toasty with some cocoa. Bitterness is low.
F: Smooth and light.
O: A fine impersonation of a Guinness but not as good as the better craft Irish Stouts. Looks great, smells fantastic but lacks flavour and its mouthfeel is decent but just a tad thin.

Canned in a big old tallboy crafty craft can and purchased from craft beer stalwarts, Beermoth, on Tibb street in Manchester centre
Pours a jet black body with thick tight tan head
Aroma is treacle and molasses
Flavour is yeasty spikes and dark malts

Tasted by a pint at The Rutland, Chesterfield. Served by a hand pump w/ a sparkler.

A: nearly black in colour, with a light tan head that lasts very well.
S: gristy dark malts and soy-sauce both at presence upfront, while lightly roasted nuts, bitter chocolates, treacle, sticky dark fruits and raisins run underneath.
T: richly-flavoured yet smoothly-textured dark chocolates and roastiness fill the palate, leading towards mildly bitter-sweet malts, roasted walnuts, and an earthy+dried tea-leafy bitter aftertaste. Very dry finish with a lingering undertone of licorice and more hops!
M&D: med-bodied, silky-smooth in carbonation; the flavour is intense and rich, but not sticky in sweetness in any sense due to the healthy weight of bitterness on the balance. What makes this tasty stout even more lovely is the all important element of superbly dryish hops. Recommended!
