On cask at the Watermill in Ings. Appearance - dark brown to black. Alist opaque but for some orange chinks around the bottom. Nose - light liquorice and mainly molasses. Taste - more molasses, salty liquorice this time. A bit of an iron note. Palate - medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long elegant finish. Overall - good beer.

Cask at Watermill Inn, Ings - Dark amber black brown body with a lacing off-white head. Nose is a light malty, roasted, chocolate and a slight bit of coffee. Taste is sweet with a sugary mocha feel to it. A bit on the flat side, but not bad either way
