Cask at Goose, Wolverhampton. Pours โbitter brownโ with a small foamy off-white head and good lacing. Not much of an aroma โ just hints of berry fruits and malts. In the mouth it is quite bitter with leafy texture. Flavour is more pronounced with traditional hops, malts, biscuits and red berries. Hints of honey and leaves come lated leading to a slightly fruity finish. This is a decent traditional bitter.

Dark brown with a thick, initially unpleasant-looking creamy head. A delicate aroma, slightly burnt toast, with notes of licorice, cocoa, and coffee. The body is light to medium, becoming flat after foaming, with an interesting earthy, herbal bitterness. The initial impressions are positive, with roasted notes, coffee, chocolate, and a slight acidity, followed by a sudden emptiness, a lighter body, and only the finish is brimming with flavor.

Keg at Sanzibar, Sedgley. Darkest brown ans glossy. Thick foamy white head with decent lacing. Aroma has creamy coffee with a sour streak. Flavourwise it's surprising sour - tart - sour spur coffee (plus bitternes). Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. OK. Not at it's best? And also more of a Mild?
