Cask at GBBF. It pours clear amber with a small white head. The aroma is very earthy, wood, leather, must, damp leaves and plaster board. The taste is drying, bitter, earthy, wood, leather, tannin, cereal, grainess and varnish with a drying finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Unusual stuff, but not in a bad way. Earthy.

Gravity cask at the 2017 Cambridge Beer Festival. Honeyed gold, clear and flat. A little bit of toffee and digestive biscuit in the aroma, but there’s not a lot here if truth be told. Taste is also light but more satisfying with a gentle malty sweetness - think Lotus biscuit spread - and more than a touch of bittering hop in the finish. Light milds are a dying breed, so it’s always good to make the acquaintance of one even if it’s a bit on the bland side. It’s not the greatest personality beer-wise but it’s more intriguing than I thought it would be.
