On cask at The Rake in London. From notes.

A - Poured black with brown sections at the bottom. One finger fluffy tan head. No visible carbonation. Good retention, with no head disapearing. No lacing left.

S - Stouty. Not typical though. Fruity with some heavy fruit notes. Kinda odd but nice.

T - Roasty with some chocolate covered fruits like prune maybe? Chocolate quite obvious. Roasty/fruity combo is good.

M - Very dry finish, no carbonation and medium to full bodied.

O/D - Not a bad stout. Different combo of flavours than American styled Impy Stouts which is a nice change once and a while. Nothing to write home about but nothing to turn down.
