Stockport Beer Festival 2016. Darker cloudy ale. Not a traditional mild by any means, with a heavy bacon flavouring that’s quite tasty.

Hand-pulled half-pint in The Crown Inn, Oakengates on 1st May 2015. Black with a ruby hue to the edges, just a collar around the glass for a topping. Peat Bog smoky from the start in both the aroma and taste, malts ruling the roost over the hop content throughout. Decent, if a little too smoky for my wife’s palate.

Cask stillage at the Anchor, Birmingham. Poured a clear medium amber with a frothy broken white head. The aroma is citrus malt. The flavour is moderate bitter with a big floral citrus hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. A great session ale with bags of flavour.
