| Martin the Mildman |  | 10 Nov 2012 | Reddish brown beer dominated by crystal malt giving a rather cloying bittersweet flavour. Hint of fruit in the finish. My score 14/20. |

| Alenomore |  | 27 Oct 2011 | Superb dark type Bitter/Mild. 4 pints devoured tonite... |
| Alenomore |  | 26 Oct 2011 | Great to see this Shep's seasonal, the second time this week. An excellent dark type, served in top condition by the Jockmeister tonite. Would have scored 5* but the temperature let it down. Still very good though. |

| Ian |  | 29 Oct 2011 | After reading Kentish Al's reviews of this beer, I went looking for it and found it. mid to light brown colour with thin beige head. Slight toffeeish aroma. Only some sheps yeast flavour. Quite malty. Its not in best nick. Only cask they have. Some fruit like the late red but finish is sharper. Almost no condition but the flavour is ok. And has some decent bite on the finish. Has the best character of a sheps veer i have had for some time. Surprisingly decent |

| Alenomore |  | 25 Oct 2011 | This Shep's Halloween seasonal, a dark type Mild, was superb and I went back for another. The landlord said it had been selling really well and it went off very soon, but he gave me nearly a whole pint for gratis?? Lovely ale and only £2.80 a pint? |
