Who	Score	When	Notes
Stephen Harris	Not Tried	10 Dec 2019	An ancient cask, dusted down from somewhere.
Stephen Harris		08 Feb 2017	A dusty cask of this beer has been found in a forgotten corner of a storeroom. The strength is given this time as 11.5%. It is jet black, with a thick mouthfeel. A bit sweet. Tastes a lot like a Port Wine, with hops, and burnt around the edges.
Stephen Harris		28 May 2013	A very serious Imperial Stout, served here on key-keg dispense. Has all the flavours that being a 12.5% Imperial Stout implies.
