Twickenham Honey Dark

Brewed by Twickenham Fine Ales
Style: Mild Ale
Twickenham, England

Serve in English pint, Shaker

From cask in London. Dark brown colour, almost black. Thermos coffee, caramel and honey in aroma. Silky soft body with pretty dark flavours, including honey, black currant, juniper and coffee. Medium bodied with low, pleasant bitterness.

A Sim rate (cask at the White Horse): Aroma of honey, caramel & nuts. Bit of roasty sweetness. Flavour is slightly metallic with a nutiness that lingers in a burnt caramel finish. But there’s something about it that isn’t quite refined. Leaves a metallic taste in your mouth. It’s nice but not fantastic.

Handpulled cask at the Red Lion, Isleworth. Black with a tan creamy head. Sweet aroma with coffee. Roast malt flavours with a fair splash of honey and some chocolate. A decent brew.
