Very relaxed atmosphere with the sun streaming in through the skylight and quiet jazz playing in the background. Easy to lose track of time in here.
Nottingham - Foundry Mild | 4.70 | | Top sample here, in perfect condition with a sweetish chocolate malt taste and smooth mouthfeel. Malty finish. My score 17/20. |
