Landlord Dark originates from the multi award-winning Landlord Pale Ale but brewed with caramelised sugars to give a rich yet light and drinkable dark ale.
This perfectly balanced mellow dark beer has body and depth. It has a fruity, toasted aroma with hints of chocolate, citrus and roasted malts on the tongue. A darker shade of pale!
Malt: Golden Promise, Crystal Malt, Brown Malt, Black Malt
Whole Leaf Hops: WGV/Goldings, Fuggles, Savinjski Goldings
Yeast: Taylor's Taste Strain

Note: I added this beer as there was only the cask version. Admins please feel free to merge the two. 500ml bottle from Morrisons, online. Pours black with moderate sized beige to tanned head Big caramel aromas but also quite sweet and chocolate noted. Taste is quite mellow and easily drinkable. Caramel, light roast, chocolate comes through with some grassy bitterness. Light bodied, medium carbonation. Nice although lacks something on the pale ale version.

Bottle. Black/dark brown with a decent light brown head. Aroma of malts, cookies, caramel fudge and butter. Taste of malts, milk chocolate, toffee, caramel, minerals and some liquorice finishing off tangy and fruity (say red berries and lemons). Comparatively strong bitterness. Medium carbonation. Neat.

Bottle. Dark red with a light tan head. Singed dark sugars, some roasted and nutty notes, spices and flowers. Quite fizzy. Cereal and chicory, dark sugars. Bitterness is firm but slightly blunted as it struggles through.

Bottle 50 cl. Pours dark brown, near black. Rich aroma of sweetness, hay, toast and slight burnt hints. Dry with fairly light body, medium bitter with slight bready, sweet taste, bitter finish. Excellent balance in its simplicity.

[50cl bottle from Sainsburyโs, Bracknell.] A glossy near black pour with a fast fading caramel coloured head; aroma of roasted grains; rich in the mouth with a sweet roasted grain taste and a touch of coffee; than a dry earthy finish with a light hoppy bitterness and lingering treacle toffee. A nice mild.
