From cask at Wenlock Arms. Pours dark brown to black with a small white head. Aroma is roasted malty. Smooth roasted malty flavoured. Light bitterness coming through. Nicely roasted malty flavoured finish.

A dark red-brown beer with a fine light brown head. The aroma is roasted with notes of coffee. The flavor is very powerful of coffee, but also of chocolate - great flavor. If this is how Mild’s were in the old days, I want them back to the roots.

Crème-coloured, thin head; opaque brown ale with orangey hints. Sweet, dark malts, bit woody, winegrapes, tannins, whiff of tobacco. Severe woody, nearly tart taste with a sweet malty undercurrent. Tannins abund. Bitter chocolate, whiff of fruity sour. Not quite in balance. Well bodied, some alcohol warming. Especially in comparison to the standard, the Sarah Hughes Dark Ruby Mild, I cannot find this very "mild" at all. Rather harsh, but not uninteresting.

Bottled. Dark mahogany with beige head. Capuccino aroma. Sweet and very softly malty with loads of coffee and whipped cream. Salty finish. Had this been an American beer we would have heard immediate appeals for the new style "Imperial Mild"...
