2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Cask conditioned at a Wetherspoons. Dark brown with beige head. Sweet thin and malty, almost bready in character. Too sweet to be a quaffer, which is what a mild is supposed to be. Some dark roasted bitterness in the background, pretty average.

3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Cask at Cockney Pub, Århus. A pitch black beer with a brown head. The aroma is sweet with a strong roasted note, that gives it hints of acidity. The flavor is sweet malty and very roasted, combined with light notes of chocolate, again the hard roasted malt gives it hints of acidity. No wonder the body is thin.

Cask at GBBF 06’: tastes very fresh, great roasty flavor, quite light bodied, the only bad thing is some light unpleasent rotten and skunky flavor, but still a nice mild with a dry finish.

GBBF - 2006. Slightly thin and bland. Quite refreshing with dark malt notes and faint raspberry tones. But too bland to be interesting.

[Cask at GBBF] Dark brown. Sweet and light bodied with rounded mouthfeel. There’s roasty malt and corn flakes. Feels light and easy going. A more than decent mild.
