Have drunk this on occasion before, but not rated it. Cask at Posada, Wolverhampton. Pours a dark amber with a small foamy white head and good lacing. Exudes a slightly sweet malty aroma. In the mouth it is quite sweet with flavour of malt load and dark fruits with underlying hints of caramel and vanilla. Finish is fairly sweet too. A nice solid traditional bitter – of the kind that is becoming all too rare.
