Cask @ Smithfield Market Tavern, Manchester. Black with a small head. Its mint and chocolate are a little more stated in aroma than taste, although neither are particularly stated to begin with.

Keg @ Smithfield Market Tavern, Manchester - not too far from the River Irwell in the city centre. Smooth gaseous keg stout and easy enough for it, although a grittiness exists here. Somewhat floral in aroma.

Cask @ Smithfield Market Tavern, Manchester. Not overly brown in colour, more red ale in colour, but a good body and darker-malt hoppiness should elevate po and.its standard

[February 2023] Clear and golden with a frothy white head. Not much of an aroma, just a hint of light malt and citrus, but it’s a proper decent session pale with subtle tangerine bitterness and a dry finish

Tap. Nose is chocolate, vanilla, dark malt. Taste is chocolate, fruity, notes leading to a touch of vanilla and dark malt touch of woody licorice. Very rich mouth feel.
