Commercial Description:
Cask; Seasonal - May.
This magic potion is in the tradition of milds and 60/-. Tempting chocolately colour, complex mixture of liquorice and mocha aromas. Luscious deep malty flavour.

A brown coloured brew, with a light malty chocolate flavour. A nice simple pint.

Cask (handpump), Knights Templar (JDW), Chancery Lane, London. A dark ruby coloured brew with a beige head. Roasty aroma, but there’s some unwelcome diacetyl in there. Lost of roast malt in the flavour with a touch of creamy chocolate. Fairly sweet. A decent enough mild, but there’s not really anything particularly magic, or potion-like, about it.

Cask at the Market Porter, Southwark. Dark, almost black but with ruby hints. The beer lacks body and is rather boring, with a fairly bland taste with quite a lot of fruit. No character.

Cask at The Wellington, Birmingham. Dark and creamy with a good head. Chocolate and caramel aromas but lacking in flavour. Not bad but pretty average.
