The Black Prince was the eldest son of Edward III. He was married to Joan of Kent and is buried in Canterbury Cathedral. This is a full bodied mild, very smooth on the palate with subtle hop notes.

26/11/2021. Cask at The Orange Tree, Chelmsford. Pours black with a small off-white head. Aroma of ash, chocolate, roasted malt, blackberry, dark fruits. Moderate sweetness, light roasted bitterness. Moderate body, slight watery oily texture, soft carbonation. Decent, could have done with a bit more body.

Pours dark as the night, with a small frothy off-white/beige head, and a mild aroma of fruity malt. Very smooth, with hints of dark fruit and a touch of coffee in the flavour, perhaps some liquorice coming through, and a slightly bitter finish

Bottle from Quex Farm Shop, near Margate. Dark brown, light fizz, decent beige head. Sweetish and fruity up front, with liquorice, blackcurrant,plain chocolate and a little earth. Light smoke with a little dryness and slight bitterness in the finish. More blackcurrant in the aftertaste. Decent, full-flavoured mild - I enjoyed it despite not being the biggest fan of liquorice flavours.

Rather black with medium brown head. Aroma is coffee, earth, rotting herbs, molasses. Taste is sour juice with some coffee and bitter juice. Medium bodied. Very low carbonation. Hm.
