May 9, 2009 Cask conditioned at Banbury Beer Fest ’09. Chestnut with white head. Thin and a little on the sweet side, but certainly smooth and chocolatey malty. A sessionable mild that gains a silky tone. Not bad.

Apr 20, 2009 Updated: Apr 21, 2009Cask handpull, The Fat Cat, Norwich. Can’t see the ruby for lace. Beautiful, highly kilned smoky mild packed with condition and cocoa, vinous fruit, earth and milky coffee back-up. Fine sweaty hop presence both in the aroma and flavour. Hopped up to the nines for style, but still unmistakably a mild. Totally hits the spot.
