Cask at the GBBF 2008. Black colour, reddish brown in the highlights. Lovely complex aroma, roasted malts, oak, dark fruits, chocolate and liquorice. Nicely balanced flavour between the malts and hops, there is an assertive bitterness but it is not overdone.

Oct 11, 2008 Cask conditioned at The Woolpack, Banbury Beer Fest ’08. Dark brown with white head. In a festival of flavours, this type of beer tends to struggle, but taken on its own its a decent, bog standard mild, some roasty malted notes, no big flavours although some fruitiness. Pretty good for what it is supposed to do.
