SilkTork	2.7 Langham Triple XXX April 2023. Olaf's Tun Southampton. The train fatality day. Rounded mild. Yeah, this is nice. Pretty much what you'd expect from a dark mild. Watery charcoal and butter with a whiff of blackberry. OK. [2.7] Sunday, April 23, 2023
steveddy	3.2 Langham Special Draught (LSD) Threw me.. for some reason was expecting an IPA.. start again. Pours deep amber red. Nose of toffee apples with a light hoppy spice. Tastes much the same, lingeringly sweet but with just enough bitterness to see it off. A nice cold weather brew. Bottle from local section in co op. Sunday, January 29, 2023
ManVsBeer	3.1 Langham Triple XXX Cask @ Handle Bar, Southampton. Dark with an off-white bubbly head. As full-bodied as a traditional mild can get, feeling good in the palate. It has a light tasting, mildly floral dark malt character. Tuesday, January 10, 2023
FACambridge	2.5 Langham Hip Hop Aroma : Not much...tiny note of caramel malt, light lemon citrus with a hint of herbage. Taste : Thin watery body. Moderate to high hoppy bitterness throughout. Overriding flavour is a light bitter lemon, with just the merest touch of sweet caramel malt in the background. Higher hoppy bitterness than usual for style & above average for a blonde but still nothing special! Monday, November 7, 2022
BlackHaddock	3.5 Langham Triple XXX Hand-pulled half-pint in the Handle Bar, Southampton on 11th June 2022. Great to see a new (to me) Mild these days, so had to try it, glad I did. Almost black with a beige head. Malty front with a mini chocolate aroma and taste, nice traditional Mild with an ABV that is well hidden within it's flavours. Monday, June 27, 2022
BlackHaddock	3.6 Langham Best Bitter Hand-pulled pint at the Handle Bar, Southampton on 11th June 2022. Nice looking beer, clean and clear golden/amber body, off-white head. Semi-sweet malty front with a light fruity hop finish. Monday, June 27, 2022

ResinousMaestro55	3.2 Langham Hip Hop Warm gold in colour with a fluffy white head. Floral aromas, with a decent hoppiness in there too. Taste is dry and bitter. Nice Sunday, April 3, 2022
BeardedAvenger	3.5 Langham Rocket Juice Keg at Horse & Groom, Chobham. Somewhere in there we have stone fruit and a touch of citrus but it tests the nose muscles. Hazy healthy looking orange. Thin translucent white head. At first it appears to be medium bitter but on a third mouthful the bitterness really kicks in - resin. Underlying stone fruit and citrus but overshadowed by the bitterness. Spice. Hints of malts. Medium-heavy bodied. Slick. Flat prickly carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. A bitter NEIPA and possibly less juicy than intended? Thursday, January 20, 2022

BeardedAvenger	3.2 Langham Aegir Bottle from Secretts, Milford. Aroma is of course smokey, tar, with a liquorice and vegetable streak. Dark and glossy. Thin foamy light beige head. Medium-heavy bitter. Warming tar. Liquorice. But it's primarily acrid. Underlying vaguest hints of creamy sweetness. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Oily. But thin. Fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Not great. Just fails to get the balance right and... yeah... it's just acrid. Friday, August 6, 2021
