leaparsons (3878), Leicester, Leicestershire, England Nov 25, 2004 Melton Beer Fest. A dark bitter. Aromas are earthy and a bit thin. Flavours are dry, earthy with oats and floral hops. Bitter on the finish. I have suspicions about the cask labelling of this beer at Melton Festival - it doesn’t quite fit its description in the programme. Perhaps we shall never know the truth. Gazza (720), Worcester, Worcestershire, England Oct 28, 2004 Brewed for Nottingham County football club, this beer is jet black to match their strip! Not as good as usual Nottingham beers however, with a caramelly, one-dimensional bitterish taste and finish. Needs more work. (Cask at Melton Mowbray beer festival)
