Bottle from Webbs of Wychbold, between Bromsgrove and Droitwich. Dark ruby colour with quite a fizzy off white head which leaves a small swirl. Aroma is more promising with light earthiness, biscuit, nuts, red berries, flora, sweetness. Taste wise it follows the same path, some richness and depth to the malt but ultimately balanced by the right amount of sweetness and the light+ slick body and a tingle of hops - very nice.

Cask-conditioned, on gravity, at the Tewkesbury Winter Ales Festival, 7/2/2020. Deep amber in colour, with a thin, off-white, head. An easy drinking mild, with a touch of red berry sweetness, caramel and ripe malts, leading to a gentle finish. Good.
