3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Cask conditioned handpump North Bar Leeds 14/05/12. A little murky dark brown coloured beer with a whitish head. Slightly toasty sweet caramel aroma. Sweetish in the mouth with chocolate and fruit. A bit of veg. A fairly flavoursome decent mild.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Dark brown with a small off-white head. Aroma of roasted malt and toffee, with an ash note. Dry and malty flavour again with ashy roasted character, which is a bit too much for my taste

A Mes rate. Cask at GBBF.
Almost black, no head. Great dry roasted nutty malt. Nice and smoky, honts of wood plus plenty of coffee and chocolate. A really good mild.

Cask@GBBF 2009.
Dark, almost opaque brown color, small beige head. Caramelly, herbal, almost a bit smokey. Herbal-grassy notes in the caramel flavor, there is odd flavors, kind of gingseng or exotic herbs. Decent body for 3.8% beer.
