Commercial Description:
A true Yorkshire mild beer. A mix of 3 malts one being dark chocolate, giving a soft bronze colour. The combination of English goldings & fuggles hops, give off a sharp wild blackcurrant after taste with a smoothness to follow. Worthy of the great tasting old style milds.

Gravity Cask @ Soton Beer Festival 07. Dry and light with a little chocolate and smoky roast almost like java coffee. Body is slightly thin and doesnt really support the flavours. There is a little drying bitterness in the finish. Not too bad but has more potential to be explored.

Cask at the Wellington, Birmingham (May 2006). Amber with a short creamy head. Citrus hops, caramel but not too sweet. Let down by the fact that it is very watery.
