(Cask at Penderels Oak JDW, Holborn, London, 20 May 2010) Dark ruby colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of dark fruit, caramel and red berries. Malty, slightly fruity taste with dried fruit, caramel and a touch of red berries. Less than medium body, balanced sweetness, moderate bitterness. A decent mild, but hardly exciting.

Cask at the Regal (JDW), Cambridge. Dark tawny brown with a dense cream head; aroma of toast and roasted malts with a touch of chocolate; smooth and creamy textured with some pleasantly sour fruity malts and licorice; the finish is mellow and fruity with a hint of vanilla. A really pleasant mild.

Cask , gravity at Banbury Beer Festival 08-05-10 Pours dark brown with off-white head. The description is correct in that this is indeed fruity and a little sweet, but malty with some light chocolate touches that show as well, pleasant but lacking just a tad for a 4.6% mild. A6 A4 F7 P3 Ov13 3.3
