Strong mild. Cocoa, vanilla and fruitcake aromas are backed by a satisfying yet subtle bitterness. Very drinkable.

Handpull cask at the Haymakers, Chesterton, Cambridge. Mid-brown, translucent and quite flat. No head. Mild coffee, stone fruit, and a hint of treacle in the aroma. Sweet and warming taste, with black cherry and some bitter coffee grounds in the long finish. Full chewy body. Very good for the style and ABV.

Cask gravity at Reading Beer Festival 2015. Mahogany colour clear. Lasting bubbly tan head. Toffee buttery aroma. Bit still. Not much hop. It’s a fairly mild mild. Malty aroma. Not great condition. Not great but not bad either. Just in that corridor of ok flavour and finish but lacks a bit up front ok.
