Supplier: Beer52
Another from this US brewery that has production in the UK, this beer is only produced for the British market. Made using Pale, Munich, and Roasted Malts (including some 6-row, which is unusual in Europe), and with Cluster, Saaz, and Cascade hops. I served this at room temperature.

Appearance: Black, looks like coke around the edges. Very sparkling with a chocolate head that dissipates very quickly.
Aroma: Grapes mixed with sugar that has caramelized to the point of burning. Hints of wood as well.
Flavour: Not much flavour on the front at all.
Body: The body makes the flavourless not taste like water as it has a substantial body and is quite smooth.
Aftertaste: Nice aftertaste. It has a big taste of molasses coupled with some delicate roasted notes.
Overall: Therefore this gets a rating of 4, close to a 5 as it is quite nice and surprisingly light, but lacking in flavour. Probably would be one of those stouts that would do well chilled.
Price Range: Another of the monthly beer subscription at £14 (usually £24) for 8 beers, so approximately £1.75 for a 355ml bottle; an OK price for a nice and drinkable beer.
Food Pairings: Would go with some nice British pork sausages and mash, along with some caramelized onions.
