Commercial Description:
Cask; Regular.
Rich and dark with more than a hint of roasted malts and caramel flavours. A wonderful balance of hop bitterness and aroma, all captured in the one glass.

At a pub in Nottingham, UK, whose name escapes me. My first experience with a mild from the cask as opposed to the keg, and I was impressed. I don’t care if mild is deemed an old man’s drink in Britain, this one’s OK by me. A nice hint of chocolatey flavour and goes down smooth.

Cask at Blue Bell York 3 May 06. Dark brown colour. Smooth and a bit uninteresting. Drinkable though.

Cask conditioned - handpump - Malt Shovel Northampton. A nut brown coloured mild. The aroma has some chocolateand fruity malts. The taste is malty and there is a lot of caramel. The body is thin but the beer is tasty - certainly much better than expected being a Tetley beer.

[Cask at GBBF 2004] A red-brown beer with a light brown head - on the lighter sides of milds. Both the aroma and flavor are sweet with caramel being most dominant - it is hard to find the roastyness.

Cask@The Brewery Tap, Wimbledon, London. What a crappy mild. reminded me of Theakston Mild, in that it didn’t taste like there was any dark/roasted malts in it, just some sort of mildly flavoured colouring. Soapy mouthfeel, some caramel i suppose, syruppy, with some Kellogs Corn Flakes in their, this was a bad, flat mild.

[Cask conditioned] Dark brown coloured. Quite smooth and nice. Very malty. A surprisingly good Carlsberg.

May, 2003: Cask, Tetley’s Ramsden Arms, Blackpool. Another great Blackpool pub - dark and smokey, with light cutting through in slopes - lots of wood panelling, brass, jugs and animal heads. The beer is stout coloured. There is a nice horse leather aroma which moves to washing up liquid before finishing with bleach. The body is very smooth with a subtle flavour profile- soft licorice and a hint of sea salt. Some gentle hop bitterness in the finish. [2.6]
Jan, 2005: Cask, Malt Shovel, Horsham. Thin malty mild of little character. Quenches the thirst. Inoffensive. [2.8]
Aug, 2009 - GBBF Day Courtfield, Earls Court Chocolate and caramel. Flavoursome, fresh and drinkable. English hops finish. Enjoyed this. [3.5]
