Cask at Vesuvio, Darlington. Gluten Free. Amber brown colour, white foam head and aroma of malt, roasted, earthy. Taste is malty, tangy, caramel, dried fruit, roasty, with nutty earthy bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, drying nutty bitter finish. Quite drinkable

I heard a 50+ stranger whilst drinking this one claiming his normal night out costs him £150 nowadays. This one was £4.80 a pint in the same pub so roughly works out at 32 pints! Bready malty bitter with a mid bitterness. Mildly sweet with a copper-amber appearance.
