Yields a black color with an utmost creamy, beige head.
Smells of roasted malts, glazed chocolate and burned caramel with the addition of fresh steeped coffee.
Drinks truly creamy, featuring a world class mouthfeel with a great softness to it, balanced by a well nuanced, sparkly carbonation in the finish.
Tastes of milk chocolate, whipped cream and nutty coffee beans with a good amount of roast to them. Turns a little sweeter then with a spoon full of rock sugar adding to the rustic malts, highlighting its subtle roastiness with just a glimpse of matured hops cutting through. Finishes light and malty with a roasty earthiness to it, covered by whipped cream and an aqueous note.
Roasty rich stout, with a surprisingly low abv and a fantastic, nitro enabled mouthfeel.

#1702 and my 23rd review of a Siren beer, notable for being the first one that is sub-5% ABV.
Blind-tasted except for the beer's name/brewery/ABV%, I haven't read the can or researched what style this is (yet!)...
L- Jet-black, held up to a halogen bulb not one photon gets through, Poured with a 5mm deep tan super-fine bubble creamy looking head. Nice! ps 10mins later holds up well.
S- Distinctive. 'Toasty' and 'charred' are about it. It has the smell of a deeply roasty-toasty black beer.
T- It follows the smell, it also has a bit more of a rich < > sweet facet from I'd expect from a stout, esp a lower-ABV one.
F- I think the rich/sweet helps bolster the feel in the face of lower-ABV. Put another way a black beer with some pungency as here, but lower ABV can feel thin and unrewarding. That's made up here via richness.
O- It's a well put together beer if you tolerate a level of 'rich/sweet' - unfortunately not my thing at all really.
Pretty pungent for a lower ABV%. I will finish it but not buy it again. I'm sure it will suit others with less trad tastes than mine much better!
Review/scoring all done, now the reveal, I get to read the can to see what I missed! My 1st question, is malt the only sugar here? ==> Contains lactose, and that is the outright sugary-sweet note here.
440ml can £3.50 BB: 09/12/2021 Bought directly from Siren UK as part of a pick-your own consignment to London.
