◐ Taste

Entry brings immediate roasted grain character, followed by chocolate and coffee in the mid-palate. The body is full and smooth, with balanced bitterness at 45 IBU that complements rather than dominates. Slight dark fruit undertones emerge beneath the primary roasted notes.

Serve at 10–14°C

Slightly warmer than you might expect. 10–13°C lets the roasted malt, chocolate and coffee notes open up fully.

Pint glass

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.

Drink within a year. Standard stouts are best fresh but hold reasonably well for 6–12 months.
