Cask Conditioned at Banbury Beer Festival 06. Very dark brown with a creamy beige head. This is as good as mild gets, strikingly strong in flavours, rich plummy fruitiness intermingled with chocolate malts and coffee notes. Hugely complex on the tongue and a long sweetness on the close. Matched the Sarah Hughes Mild and was one of the first to go at the Festival. A great Mild.

Aug 9, 2008 Cask at GBBF 08. Oily black in appearance with a strong coffee aroma. Packs a bitter chocolate punch without any excessive sweetness and remains light and easy to drink.

Apr 7, 2008 Cask at Bedford Arms Speciality Beer House, Bedford. Dark red brown. Ashy aroma and taste with a bit of sourness. Some bitterness, but overall I thought this was missing something. Maltiness perhaps.
