Cask @ The Colmore, Birmingham. Pours dark ruby, with a well-appointed off white collar that simply refuses to recede. Appealing dark sweetness on the nose. Overall character is reliant on dark treacle with distant smoky glimpses, light body. Pleasant dark mild.

Half-pint, cask ale shared with Finn at Tapped Leeds. Steady beige head, near black in the glass, clingy lacing. Smell of lightly roasted bread, mid-sweet. Malt-driven taste of bread and liquorice notes. Ends malty with a nice roasted touch to it. Good mild. (Leeds 28.01.2020).
