This beer has been brewed to celebrate 125 years of brewing at this brewery’s Northgate site and is based on a recipe for one of the first beers brewed there. It is a rich, dark beer, with a toasted aroma and big, complex coffee flavours, balanced by sweetness from dark muscovado sugar and a long, dry finish.

Cask at the Moon & Spoon (JDW), Slough. Tawny brown with a reddish tint; toasty aroma; some chocolate malts and treacle; rather thin and dry to finish. More of a mild than a stout in my opinion.

Cask at The Crosse Keys, JDW. Pours dark, ruby-brown with a foamy, tan head. Pleasant mocha nose, lightly roasty. So-so flavor, bit of roasted malts, burnt corn flakes, spent roasted barley (I’ve eaten it so I know the flavor), slight honey and a bit of scorched earth bitters. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Quite dry on the finish, more roasty malts, chalky, faintly sweet, hints of burnt grass. Not bad, but kind of ho-hum.

Cask at the Abraham Darby, JDW, Brierley Hill. Poured dark ruby brown with a thin head. Aroma was blackcurrant and cough medicine. Taste started with some coffee and had coffee, blackcurrant and cough medicine in the finish. Poor stout.

Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms (JDW), Bristol 25/03/2011. Dark brown with a decent, off-white head. Burnt rusks and singed chocolate with a hint of earthiness. Flavour of dry cereal malts, burnt straw and bitter chocolate with a dryish finish. Nearly undrinkable.

Cask handpull at Samuel Peto JDW Folkestone. Very dark brown colour. Lasting thick tan head. Bit thin isnt it? Bit of stlae cardboard. Not good. Yeah this is poor. Little in way of flavour and the cardboard is off putting. Not badly served no obvious brewing faults just not good flavours or aromas. Grainy too. Poor beer.

On tap at J.D. Wetherspoon, pours dark brown. Aroma and flavour of bitter, stale, roasted malt. Too stale and off-puttingly bitter. Very poor.
