GBBF Day 1. Cask. Hazy dark brown amber - brown beer, tidy cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry, low carbonation. Tangy dark malts, trace of roast. Watery thin finish. Meh!

At GBBF (cask conditioned). Creamy, stable, light beige head, very dark chestnut colour, almost black in the middle. Aroma of raisins, liquorice, pipe ashes, white pepper, coffee grounds. Dried fruits in the mouth, bit oily mouthfeel, soft, caramelly with roasted bitterness and a smoky umami touch as the palate develops, some floral hop bitterness in the end. Another exemplary "new school" dark mild.
