Buzzard is a traditional dark ale brewed with pale, crystal and chocolate roasted malts and Herefordshire hops. Deep copper red in colour with the roasted chocolate malt giving a dry nutty flavour with hints of amaretto biscuit. The finish in the mouth is a dry smoky smooth finish.

Bottle from ASDA for £1. Aroma of dark fruit with a hit of roasted malt. Flavour had some chocolate and more fruit before a slightly bitter finish. Good.

Cask handpull at CountyHotel JDW Ashford. Dark ruby colour with lasting thin beige head. Choc/coffee nose. Smooth in mouth. Good flavour carries on with goodish finish with is just a little it short. Would have picked this as a stout rather than an old ale.

Sampled cask conditioned. Dark brown, slightly hazy. Light bodied. Slighly acidic, but refreshingly so, somewhat roasty. Not much bitterness, so instead there is this unusual acidity and a hint of fruitiness in the finish.
