Cask (Peterborough BF 2007) Rich brown colour. Treacly aroma. Treacle also on the taste. Delicate bitter hints. Superb mild, hugely drinkable.

Cask at Peterborough Beer Fest. Dark brown, almost black. Sweet with creamy roasty malt, notes of figs. Fairly light bodied with wonderfully soft mouthfeel and a surprisingly powerful resiny bitterness. A hoppy, full flavoured mild.

Cask conditioned at Coventry Beer Fest ’07. Dark brown with cream head. A really popular beer at the festival this one, plenty of fresh flavours for a Mild, deep roasted bitter chocolate initially with cappuccino coffee notes then a pleasant hoppy finish. A well balanced beer.

Bottle. Thanks maeib. Really dark with a small biege head. Smells a bit subdued, but definately roasted; coffee and chocolate, some fruits too. Tastes very roasted too, some sourness and not much bitterness, lots of malt. A bit watery palate, but thats what you get when drinking a mild i guess. Overall this one isn’t half bad. First thing that comes too mind when drinking this, is a watered down porter (and i like porters a lot).

Bottle. Black with a small head. Aromas are earthy roast coffee with winter fruit, chocolate and some fruit. Flavours are coffee and mellow berries with plain chocolate and sweet mollasses. Dry and hoppy towards the finish. A very nice mild.
