Unbalanced roastiness. Quite malty and harsh. Probably spent to long time in the mash.

Oct 24, 2004 Cask Conditioned at Oxford Beer Festival ’04. Dark brown red beer with a big bubbly head. Dry roasted malt flavours predominate but with a powdery bitterness. Nut flavour on the finish, this is a crossover between a mild and a bitter.

Aug 26, 2004 A slightly unusual beer from a brand new brewery. Very dark for a bitter - chestnut colour. Roasty malt aroma with some sulphur. Malt, hop and a hint of chocolate in the flavour. Dry finish, with some bitterness. A bit like a cross between a mild and a premium bitter. Not bad though. Cask (gravity), Peterborough Beer Festival 2004.

Aug 26, 2004 Peterborough Fest. Dark bitter. Slightly acidic. Chocolate notes. A darker and stronger version of the Common. The two Fugelestou beers certainly drew attention - this being the first time beers from this new brewery have been available. Mick the Tick came up and quickly bagged them before they ran out.
