24th July 2018, cask half-pint at The Crown Inn, Oakengates Shropshire. Dark brown body, tanned affair on top. Malty molasses rule both the nose and taste in this fairly sweet Mild, the hops playing second fiddle to the malts throughout. Light chocolate notes within the malty flavour.

Cask @ Royal Oak. Pours dark brown, pale tan head. Aroma has indistinct sweet notes, sweet dark malt. Taste is a little odd, comes across as a ruby mild with sweet chemical remnants. Not particularly pleasant, couldnt finish

Two hand-pulled cask pints in The Cock Hotel, Wellington Shropshire on 29th March 2018. Golden/amber beer with small white head, plus lacing. Aroma was hop first, as was the taste, light fruity notes arrive mid sniff and during the second sip. Mild citrus feel.
