Jun 21, 2009 Bottle labeled as a brown ale rather than a mild. Not a lot of body and slightly nutty.Well intentioned but it doesn’t come off.Very disappointing.

Jul 30, 2008 Bottled. A dark brown coloured beer with a nice tight off-white coloured head. The aroma is roasty and smoky and filled with chocolate malt. More choc in the taste. Very full flavoured for its ABV. Malty and bitter also. A very nice recommended beer.

Apr 24, 2008 Bottle from the Dodgi’ Deli’ Cowley Road, Oxford Pours dark brown with foamy off white head. Aroma bit earthy but also some chocolate (noticed by Loz), taste is slightly sour and if truth be told its ok but very much in the homebrew league, bit caramelly, bit malty bit unimpressive really.
