Cask at Smithfield, Derby. Pours a golden amber with a small white head. Malts and grains are there in the aroma. The immediate sensation in the mouth is the overall sweetness and a chewy texture. Biscuits and malts are the mainstay of the flavour plus hints of fruits, though some citrus does come through later on. Finish is quite sweet. Quite nice, but not very exciting.

10/10/2021. Bottle from Centrale, Newcastle. Delicious example of the style, my 191st Northumberland beer and my new highest rated beer from that county. Pours black with a rich tan coloured head. Aroma of milk chocolate, lactose, moderate roasted malt, vanilla, toffee, black treacle, mild liquorice, dried fruits, nutty edge. Medium plus sweetness and light to moderate bitterness. Medium body, smooth, oily slightly cloying texture, average carbonation. Really enjoyed this.
