A dark mild with a smokey malty taste that emits aromas of roasted coffee and chocolate. Campfire is all about the quality malted barley that give it its velvety finish. This is a modern twist on a traditional dark mild, and a perfect companion to beef, lamb and duck dishes. Enjoy any time with friends and family.

Cask at GBBF 2015, day 1 - London. Pours clear brown with a foamy off-white head. Grainy brown bread toast in the aroma. Light-medium sweet flavor, with damp earth and toffee. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Lightly sweet on the finish, with more earth, some burnt grains. OK.
