On cask in London. Smooth malty beginning with hints of smoky roast. Nuts, roasted caramel. Nice and deep dark. Refreshing but still easy to drink with depth. Round and fresh. Nice!

Tried at the Lincoln Beer festival 2015. Ruby brown colour with a small off white head. Aroma is fruity with malt and caramel. The taste follows what you’d expect from the aroma. Slightly sweet finish.

Hand-pulled pint in The Nags Head, Walthamstow Village on 4th Feb 2014. Black body with a red hue in a bright light, on top a creamy, beige head. Roasted/toasted malt nose, with a semi-sweet hint. The sweetness within the aroma comes alive a little more in the taste giving the beer a mild caramel feel to it’s maltiness. Slight bitterness towards the finish leaving you wanting more. Good depth of flavours, good depth of body and overall a good Mild.
