cask at dog and partridge preston ... deep brown ... thin tan head ... soft dark fruit roast malt nose ... soft dark berry ... light sweet light roast malts ... simple but tasty enough

Draught The Bluebell, York pours near black with creamy tan head. Roast malts in aroma. Smooth mouthfeel, very nice. Roast malts in flavour, not at all bitter. Very enjoyable

7th April 2010. Clear dark brown beer. Light palate. Slightly dry palate. Neutral malt with a hint of appley greenness. Semi dry finish. Supreme blandness!

Pint on handpull, black with a thick creamy tan head. Light roasted character to the malt. Drinks as a good standard Mild without standing out.

Handpulled cask at the Red Lion, Haddenham, Bucks. Deep ruby/black with an off white head. Surprisingly decent quaffable mild with roast malt and caramel aswell as a spattering of fresh english hops.

Cask-conditioned at the Victoria Family & Commercial, Leeds 23/06/09. Brownish-red, with plenty of caramel, a hint of chocolate and short, vaguely roasty finish. Ok.

(Cask at Wenlock Arms, London, 16 Apr 2009) Dark brown colour with brief, off-white head. Malty, roasted nose with dark fruit and caramel. Malty, taste with notes of dark fruit, wort bread and caramel. Not very exciting, but a decent and well made mild.

Cask conditioned at The Cheshire Lines, Southport. Dark brown with white head. If you want to taste how good this can be try it at this pub, top notch condition. Good full flavours, ok there is caramel, but this is a good old fashioned mild and a joy. Get to try it in a pub that loves it, you won’t regret it.
