Cask at the NWAF, 2012. My notes didn’t note down the colour but I imagine it was dark! Dark roast coffee aroma with a hint of vanilla and smoke. Chocolate, vanilla and coffee flavour. Very tasty.

Cask at GBBF 2011. It pours dark ruby-brown, with a thin bubbly beige head. The nose is roasted malt, caramel, plum, raisin and currant. The taste is sweet malt, caramel, brown bread, chocolate, lactose, treacle, plum and raisin, with a dry finish. Light body and low carbonation. A pleasant, light malty mild.

Bottle from a London shop. Pours dark brown with a creamy tan head. Aroma is mostly chocolate, though there seems to be a hint of smoke. Flavor is chocolate with some fruit. A little dark malt. A little chalky. Tastes a bit like a mild. Ok. Just read the description. I guess it must taste a lot like a mild.
