L- A very deep chestnut brown, clear, very elegant indeed, with a 3mm pale tan head, holds well.
S- A deeper roasted smell with hints of cocoa.
T- Woah, it starts slow, into ale > deep/quite pungent ale > is that cocoa? > er, no I think it more coffee.
F- It a lightish body relative to it's relatively full-on Taste. So if you were big into black beer you could session this and I expect it would stand up well to spicy food too.
O- Sometimes you find beers from newer small regional brewers and have higher hopes than findings. This beer seems a bit different from other porters/black beers I've had. Firstly, there is nothing wrong/out of place here for my palate to object to. It has quite a pungent flavour, the body works with that but isn't so heavy to become tiring. CO2 remains good even 20 minutes (and counting) post-pour. I think it's an accomplished beer and one fans of black beer might seek out. For 5% this one does a decent job of the style.
500ml paper wrapped bottle that peels off and has more info and is also a 'beer token'. BB: 10/08/2021 Bought from BeersOfEurope/UK for home delivery.
