Cask at the Pigs Ear festival ’09. Alround rating: Pale mild is an unusal beast and unusual for a reason, underhopped light golden bitters are not normally very good, this didnt break that trend. Pale and sweet malt, bit of berries and almond nuttyness. It needs hops.

Cask (gravity dispense) at Pigs Ear Beer Festival, 1 December 2009. I know very little about this operation other than they plan to open a brewery at the Keld Lodge Hotel in North Yorkshire but haven’t done so yet and the beers are currently brewed at Old Bear. I don’ t know what level of involvement the Kelda people have in the production process. Light mild. Light mouthfeel. Clean and - er - light. A little residual sweetness. OK. Decent example of a rare style.

Cask gravity at Pig’s Ear BF 09. Mid brown, thin beige head. It’s a pale mild. Very drinkable, very acceptable. Excellent example of the style.
