Pub (4123), Banbury, Oxfordshire, England Aug 26, 2006 Cask conditioned at The Cornerstone Cafe, St Peters Port, Guernsey. Dark brown with white head. Thinnish dry fruity mild a touch watery on the tongue. A light malty finish, quite ovaltine in character. Not bad really.

Dark coloured smooth on the palate with some fruit flavour. Slightly dry lsting roast finish. SilkTork (3941), Rochester, Kent, England Oct 4, 2005 Maidstone Beer Fest. 2005. A warm, flavoursome roasty mild. Very pleasant. Good balance of flavours. Lingers well in the mouth. maeib (4012), Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, England Aug 25, 2005 Cask conditioned - gravity dispense - Peterborough BF. A dark brown murky looking beer with an aroma showing a little chocolate but it’s all a bit faint. The taste shows some caramel and chocolate but again in no great measures. Disappointing but I’m still the King of Guernsey!! Daniel_Brown (1919), Birmingham (via Leicester), West Midlands, England May 31, 2005 Hand pumped at the Wellington, Birmingham. Ruby/amber hued dark brown. Nice, smooth and creamy beige head. Good lacing, but a slightly sulphur aroma. Sweet, milky consistency, smooth, with a little watery choc in the finish. Metal feeling at times, especially in the aftertaste, and I have a sense that this may have been due to the serving of it, rather than inherent to the beer. Goodish Mild (it is very mild). Refreshing and smooth.
