29/1/2020. Cask at the 13th Colchester Winter Ale Festival. Pours clear, quite a dark brown with a small off-white head. Aroma of moderate roasted malt, milk chocolate, light coffee and caramel. Medium sweetness, light bitterness. Moderate body, slight oily and watery texture, soft to flat carbonation. Pretty decent mild, would be easy to drink a lot of this.
