Bottle from Secretts Farm Shop, Surrey. Currently down as a bitter but the bottle states ’mild’. Sweet caramel and malts aroma. The bottle states that it’s dark ruby beer, but not so ruby. The beige head soon shrinks to nothing. Sweet with hints of bitterness. Develops a sourness into the finish. Some caramel, malts, berries. Light bodied and watery. A prickle of carbonation. Long but low key finish. One of those beers that gives milds a bad name, reminds me of a flat budget brand cola which someone’s then hopped. OK but bland.
