Half-pint, cask ale outside in the backyard of Fat Cat. A clear warm golden body, tiny pearl white head, spotty lacing. Fresh smell of orange and pale malts. Quite succulent taste of citrus, leafy hops and mid-dry malts. Decent bitter endnotes. Well made session bitter. (Sheffield, 28.04.2025).

Used to love a good Crunchie bar as a kid. Black with a small creamy head. Lovely honeycomb aroma, slightly less stated in taste but still heavy. Found at the Lime Street Station Spoons - the gateway to Liverpool!

Dartmoor Prison Museum operates on the opposite side of the road to the still operational prison on the moor. Not much light around there at night, and this one is pretty dark too, looking black. Gentle tasting but crisp dark malts here. Very easy mild.
