Warning! Early amateur rating! On tap at the Sun Inn, Kelvedon. Dark dark beer. Pleasantly malty with a hint of fruit. Lingering finish with contrasting sweet and bitter notes.

An earnest brew served up at GBBF ’10, very important I find. Very dark brown pour with a beige head. Coffee, caramel, malty nose. Rich flavours of chocolate, (camp)coffee and toffee. Very smooth. Slight bitterness in the finish. Good stuff.

Cask at the CASK Pub & Kitchen on 31 July 2010. Clear, dark brown with small grey foam head. Aroma of sweet fruits/fruitcake, burnt roasted malts in main kick with tinges of smokiness, and a bittersweet slightly smoky finish. Mouthfeel is smooth to light. A delicious mild, worth seeking out.

Cask at the Red Lion, Histon. An attractive bright mahogany colour with a reddish glint and a cream head; fruit malt aroma; smooth and soft malt flavours with a touch of licorice. An excellent mild.

Cask-conditioned. Black coloured with a moderate tan head. Roasted malt and bitter chocolate aroma. Light mouth feel, with flavours of more chocolate and fruit. Good.

(Cask at GBBF, London, 8 Aug 2007) Dark brown colour with brief pale brown head. Malty nose with roasted notes of coffee, chikory and dark fruit. Roasted taste with wild berries, coffee and a nice coffeeish bitterness in the finish. Thin body, but with more bitterness than most milds. Very tasty mild, one of the better I’ve tried.
