Half pint sampled at the Belfast Beer Festival, 17th November 2006...

Poured a deep dark burgundy red / almost black... Creamy brown head poured fairly loosely then faded to almost nothing... very little lacing..

Aroma - Strong roasted malts, black coffee, leathery, slight smokiness / dustiness, dark fruits (blackcurrant, figs), bitter hop notes..

Taste – Nice bitter chocolate notes, roasted malts, slight dustiness, spicy dark fruits, light liquorice notes, black coffee, very light nutty sweetness, nice peppery hops...

Feel - Pretty smooth and creamy... Medium / full bodied... At 8.0% probably couldn't drink too many in one sitting...

Overall - A pretty good stout.... Well worth a try...
