Handpull cask at the Babington Arms (JDW), Derby. Dark brown with a slight reddish hue. Massive foamy cream-coloured head. Vague scent of Ovaltine but there’s not a lot there really. Some vegetal notes as well. Sweet and pleasant but unengaging taste. Watery palate. A fairly half-arsed attempt at a mild from a brewery that can do better.
