Cask, handpump at The Railwayman’s Arms, Bridgnorth, Shropshire, 24-04-10 Pours dark, probably very dark brown bu this place is quite dark itself so being precise is tricky. Smooth creamy mild, there is some nice flavour’s in here but they are very subtle and if truth be known its just a nice supping not thinking beer, but its in good nick and there are times you want a beer like this and I’m enjoying it now. 56 A4 F7 P3 Ov12 3.1

[Cask at GBBF 2004] A brown beer with no head. It has next to no aroma. The flavor is sweet and dry roasted combined with notes of caramel - a very nice flavor.
