Dark black and red in colour, with a complex mixture of chocolate and roast flavours. The use of two different hops, gives the beer a complex feel and smooth finish.

Cask half @ The Bull, Birmingham shared with Haddock after incurring the wrath of the landlady for sneaking in whilst delivery was taking place (very much not allowed). Pours dark, beige cap. Distant liquorice coming into view alongside a light bodied dark malt profile.. decent dark mild overall.

Shared half-pint in The Bull, Birmingham with minutemat on 25th January 2024. I was convinced I'd rated this before, but my records show I haven't until now! Cask and hand-pulled, it came a dark ruby colour with a decent beige head. Roasted, toasted malts with a chocolate edge, it's a pleasant easy going Mild with plenty going on, liked it.
