imdownthepub (3817), Banbury, Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, England May 10, 2008 Cask conditioned at Banbury Beer Festival ’08. Dark brown with cream head. Light, sweetish type of mild, quite fruity, plummy on the palate. Good solid flavour for the ABV with doses of caramel and toasty malts. A good drinkable beer, just right for Mild May.
Fin (1993), Merton, Oxfordshire, England May 11, 2008 Cask conditioned at Banbury Beer Festival 09-05-08 Mid brown in colour with a lovely smokey bacon aroma, no one else seems to have got that but Loz and I definately did, lets hope we were rating the same beer, I’ve checked me notes again and it’s definately this one. There was a nice toasty and roastiness to this beer, quite fruity interesting mild I quite like some of the Little Valley stuff as I recall and this was no exception. downender (1412), Bristol, Gloucestershire, England Apr 20, 2008 Cask-conditioned at the Bag O’Nails, Bristol 20/4/08. Chestnut red with a slight off-white mild. Aroma of red fruit and a whiff of roasted malt. Flavour had some caramel and chocolate malt before a short, fruity finish. A drinkable mild. harrisoni (4754), Ashford, Kent, Kent, England Apr 12, 2008 Cask handpull at Market Porter. Deep chestnut with thin beige head. Roasty toasty mild with good fruits. Rather a good mild. It is mild, but it is toasty. Excellent mild, with some choc, but just so tasty in the malts.
