Handpull cask at the Stamford Arms, Groby. Very dark brown. Almost black. Light cream/khaki head with considerable lacing. Aroma of light coffee, liquorice, sulphur. Sweet malty taste with astringent bitterness in the latter half of the sip. Light oily body lifted by natural carbonation. In perfect condition which of course helps. Not the best mild in the world but not bad by any stretch.
