Bear & Ragged StaffExcellent04 Mar 2013 Haven't had a pint designated as a mild for over thirty years, so I was a little apprehensive. This was nutty and earthy and packed with flavour. Good body and a lush head. Will not hesitate in future.

IanExceptional23 Aug 2010 I couldn't believe the quality of this beer. Beautiful condition and lots of dark fruits, choc and coffee and a good drying finish. One of the best milds I've had.

BlairAcceptable27 Jun 2009 Had an odd barnyard aroma to it. Flavour was good though, a fairly straight forward mild, other than the aroma.
