Commercial Description:
Available filtered and pasteurised in cans and kegs.
NOTE: Only ratings for the keg and canned versions should be enetered here. The cask version has a separate listing.
A Gold medal winner in the international brewing industry awards 2000, and a three times bronze medal winner at the Great British Beer Festival in the Best Mild category, this is a smooth, full flavoured, truly dark mild with a rich creamy head. It has a full body and distinctive roasted malt taste, balanced by its fresh hop character. Complex flavours and aromas are achieved by blending deeply roasted malt and adding a selected blend of English hops, including dry hops, to the cask conditioned beer.

440ml can from ASDA. Very dark brown with reddish undertones. Tight, creamy tan head and plenty of carbonation. Aroma of coffee and milk chocolate. Smooth mouth feel, with plenty of roasty flavours, a touch of dark fruit and a slightly bitter finish. A good mild.

1/2 pint draught at Dispensary pub, Liverpool. Black color, nice beige head. Aroma is roasted malt and dark fruit. Flavor is roasted malt, dark fruit/raisin, coffee and some bitterness. Mild, but very drinkable.

Tashi’s house, 28/05/08. 440ml can to round off the evening. A very straightforward, chocolatey mild. The roasted malt gives it an enjoyable biscuity flavour and it has a wonderfully smooth mouthfeel. A very drinkable modern mild.

440 ml can thanks to Doppelganger. Pours dark black with a awesome thick light-brown head. The aroma is fairly light; roasted malt and light chocolates. The taste is just what is claims to be: a mild ale. Full of roasted malt and caramel, bitter dark chocolate and hops. Awesome. This is not a beer that will blow you away, but it doesn’t claim to be. Easy drinking but tasty, and a awesome mouthfeel. Thanks Casey.
