Can from RHS Wisley shop. Aroma of creamy coffee with a berry edge. Dark and glossy opaque brown. Massive fluffy foamy off-white head. Medium-heavy bitter. Espresso-Mocha. Quinine. Tart berries add sourness. Medium bodied. Slick verging on creamy. Flat-average carbonation. Long astringent finish. As far as Milds go this is a bitter fella. Good stuff.

Sun Inn fest. Kelvedon. Cask. Clear gold beer, tidy white head. Palate is light and smooth, reasonable fine carbonation. Smooth light pale malts bring a nice light level of sweetness, touch of honey. Light tangerine and lemon, nice light tropical fruits. Mild spice on the smooth and semi dry finish. Modest bitter linger. Plenty going on here. Would be happy to session this in good company.

500ml bottle [courtesy of Grumbo - thanks a lot!]. Jet black colour with average, frothy to creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, beige head. Roasty, dark malty and herbal-grassy, hoppy aroma. Taste is bitter, roasty dark malty and herbal-grassy hoppy, notes of liquorice, salted liquorice, hints of cold coffee, a touch of peppermint. Biting, refreshing, with a tendency towards Black IPA.
