On cask at the 2011 Belfast Beer Festival.
Purple-tinged black with steady tan foam. Smoke, earth, ash and brown sugar on the nose - no hops.
Caramelized sugar and rock candy up front, a bit of ashy sourness and tea leaf hops to end.
Chocolate finish and bitter cocoa linger. Medium, round, chewy and smooth.
Where's the Amarillo? Don't know why you'd use them but hide them. Nice mild - almost a sub-mild - but little trace of hops. A bit lean, but easy.

I sampled this on a recent trip to Blackfriars in Glasgow.
The beer poured a very dark brown colour with a decent off white head, pretty normal for a pint of mild.
The nose was dominated by roasted malts and chocolate with a slight hint of spiciness.
The beer drank like a mild should, light on the mouth but I was surprised that this actually had some more tastes going on than a standard pint of this style. The malts and chocolate came through from the nose and this was followed by an aftertaste of spices that left a dry finish.
A very pleasant beer that was topped off by it's drinkability a light bodied beer ideal for a hot summers day, this was so pleasant that we stayed in the bar for a few more pints.
