Bottle from The Hillside Brewery, Longhope, Gloucestershire. Pours almost black with a medium sized throthy beige head. Aromas of roasted malts, chocolate, coffee and nuts. Taste has more of the same notes again with added notes of fruity cherries and berries and brown bread. Medium body with a very smooth mouthfeel. Loads of flavour for the low abv. Excellent beer will definitely seek out again.

Bottle at home, from the local CoOp, 27/12/20. Extremely dark mahogany brown with a well presented lasting khaki cap ... a great looking beer! Nose is dried berry fruits, toffee, light pouch tobacco, brown bread. Taste comprises light cocoa powder, fruit loaf, pinch of spice, dates, faint sprinkle of brown sugar. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Decent flavoursome mild.

2/11/2019. Bottle from minutemat. Pours very dark brown with a large frothy beige head. Aroma of milk chocolate, fruit, berries, roasted malt, caramel and slight ash. Medium sweetness, moderate roasted bitterness. Moderate body, slight oily texture, fizzy carbonation. Very nice mild apart from the high carbonation.

500ml bottle from Co-Op, Shrewsbury. Pours a deep brown, offwhite topping. Nutty chocolate aroma. Generally quite light with a pleasant nutty chocolate character, malt grain with some leafy hints. Decent dark mild this. Not surprised its won the awards it boasts on the label.

Bottle forms Secretts of Milford. Chocolate and berries aroma. Ruby brown. Thick frothy head. Light creamy chocolate sweetness before a berry bitter hit. Malty base. Medium bodied. Relatively thin. A subtle hum of fizzy carbonation. Long slightly astringent finish. A decent mild for sure. Good stuff.
