From Christmas 2022, drunk in September 2023.

L: Jet black, but a bright jet black, if that makes sense... There's a mocha-coloured, thin rim of foam. Lots of lacing is left in the glass.

S: Blueberry, brown sugar, cola, caramelised sugar. The can says fudge brownie, but I get no chocolate or cocoa note.

T: Taste largely follows the nose, with a berry note the main player in the mouth. There's a little hoppy, medicinal bite to it, especially retronasally, that my brain characterises as fake cherry, which, at a very large stretch, could be bitter dark chocolate, but I'm just not getting the advertised chocolate fudge decadence.

M: The mouthfeel is smooth, with minimal carbonation. That bite that I mentioned earlier leads to a slight numbness in the mouth, which is why I thought it was hop-driven. It's not offensive, but I definitely wasn't expecting that from the beer.

O: This beer is not offensive; it's quite drinkable, and I would not run screaming if offered it again. As I mentioned above, my quibble is that I didn't pick up the expected chocolate fudginess advertised as this beer's main point.

Cheers
