A dark, sweetish, strong Ale with smooth fruity flavour & slight Liquorice after taste. This beer was brewed in honour of the late William Mucklow who was the last commercial brewer in Bewdley and ceased brewing in 1912. He was reputed to have brewed a strong sweet dark mild (approx 6%+) and it was alleged to have been the second strongest mild in the country.

Bottle at the School’s Out Tasting. Pours dark amber, with the merest white head. Aromas of light chocolate, light red fruit, Worcester tang. Taste is soapy - maybe there’s only one bottling line in Worcestershire? They’ve all been pretty soapy so far. Thin for the strength.
