This rarely seen beer has been brewed again especially for the Wetherspoon 2011 real-ale festival. This chestnut-coloured mild ale has a delicate hop aroma, leading to a well-rounded, malty flavour, subtle bitterness and rich, biscuity finish.

Cask @ The Forty Foot, Dun Laoghaire [241015]
Very dark amber caramel, dense off white head, touch of lacing
Aroma of slight fruits, little on nose
Taste of caramel malts, soft sweet toffee, nice malt base, soft bit earthy hops, some old lemon in there
Palate - Medium body, smooth. Finish a bit dry, touch sour, long bitter linger
Overall - Had better from this brewery. Just OK.

Cask, on gravity at the Commercial Rooms (JDW), Bristol October 2015. Chestnut in colour, with a slight, off-white, head. Sweet, nutty, malts, a touch of fruit, cocoa, caramel sweetness and a moderately bitter finish. Ok.

Third of a pint in the Moon Under Water, Boston Lincolnshire on 2nd Nov 2015. Malty lead to this reddy brown bodied beer, some hop notes in the nose and finish but otherwise biscuit maltiness all the way. Decent enough Mild, wish more breweries would brew one now and again.

On cask at the Standing order. Appearance - amber with a decent head Nose - loads of toffee slightly burnt. Taste - more of the same. Molasses. Palate - close to medium bodied with a tangy texture and a finish that is a bit cloying. Overall - not bad but not really worth going back.

Crosse Keys Spoons. Clear amber beer. Residual suddy white head. Rich toffee in the malt, dark toffee as well. Some fruity orange provides balance. Mild minerals. Ok.

Cask at the County Hotel (JDW), Ashford. Chestnut with a loose cream head that laces the glass nicely; aroma of earthy malts with a hint of nuts; sweet nutty malt flavour, surprisingly full bodied; with a dry nutty finish. This is really good.
