Classic dark mild appearance. Sweet fruity hops on the nose. A little watery, but OK. Rich malty taste. Pretty OK mild.

May 12, 2008 Cask at the Waggon and Horses (JDW), Alfreton.. A really excellent mild. Blackish brown with a tan head, when held to the light a raspberry purple hue is revealed; aroma of cherry and plum; very fruity flavour with raspberry, cherry and plum - rather like an old-fashioned cherryade; depsite all the fruit it’s not over sweet; the finish has dry roasted malts and a hint of hops. A very well put together beer.

May 2, 2008 Cask-conditioned at the Hillgrove Porter Stores, Bristol 2/5/08. Dark brown in colour with a slight tan head. Aroma of red fruit with a hint of roastiness. Flavour had a malty edge before a dry, bitter finish. Good.

Mar 2, 2008 Gravity cask at the Battersea Beer Festival, 7th Feb 2008. Deep chestnut brown in colour with an aroma of malt, cherries, leather and tobacco. Flavour is a good balance of malt and hops with tobacco notes but unfortunately some vegetable tones too. Good long hoppy finish to it. Interesting but not outstanding.
