"Black Cab Stout abv 4. 5 bottled. Nearly as black as a cab ! Hoppy chocolatey not too carbonated so smooth bitter and a bit fruity. Plenty of tan coloured head on this one. It has the Fullers family flavour profile but lighter than Porter. A really lovely nod to the black can and its place in London history."
"A lovely complex stout in the mouth, The first flavour that hits is roast malts, followed by a lovely earthiness from the hops. There are obviously coffee notes with mild chocolate and a little liquorice too. All these flavours are complemented by a pleasant sweetness, with hints of caramel and dark fruits, leading to a well-balanced and satisfying dry, mildly bitter finish. The hops in this contribute some great flavours and complement the rich, roasted malt character of the stout without overpowering it."
"After a visit to the Brewery and sampling Black Cab Stout, I decided to purchase a few bottles for home and they don't disappoint, lovely stuff, smooth tasting and very more-ish!!!"
"Lovely roasted chocolate malt taste followed with good amount of bitterness. Leaves a nice chocolate malty flavour."
"Never tried it before. So pot luck. Absolutely no regrets, wonderful full bodied. I will be ordering more!"
"Very good stout and it beats the big names. However, I prefer a stronger flavour more common in related drink Porter and stout can also have that or it would be 5 stars"
"An outstanding stout; rich, dark, with a lasting creamy head. A proper drink compared with a lot of the better known stouts. Once tried, you are hooked."
"Absolutely delightful to drink, dark very dark full bodied old fashioned stout . Best I’ve tasted you can forget Guinness from now on. Black Cab all the way , looking forward to cook my steak and kidney puddings."
"Great example of a stout. Rich and heavy. A greater ‘inbetweener’ of famous nitro stouts and my preferred London Porter"
"It was a present for my husband, he really likes this beer. Not many really good dark beers available especially at this time of year."
