First tasted this mild in the Last Post, Paisley (JDW) in May 1999. Cask, handpump dispense. Clear dark mahogany brown in colour with a thin white head. Slight note of roast malt in the short nose. Creamy mouthfeel and good lacing. Pale malts give a burnt roast grain flavour with a digestive biscuit base. Hint of dried currants and orange peel. Very slight metallic tang of bitter hop resins in the brief aftertaste. Short bitter sweet finish with tannin notes. A good session mild but very hard to find - like most Scottish 60/.

Cask Stillage at the Bhurtpore Inn, Aston 10/07/2003 Dark coloured and smooth on the palate. Crisp full roast finish.
