An exceptionally fine dark mild - in itself an unusual find, especially outside of the northwest.
The rich ebony colour and luxurious aroma suggest treacle and nutmeg - and all things yuletide. However, Black Dog (although seasonal) is light enough enjoy to sup over lunch (fried eggs, chips & beans, as it happens) or enjoy alone. A second pint goes down very well for pudding!
A well kept pint of Black Dog really hits the spot with its smooth, slightly rich taste. Not too heavy though and as a half pint, excellent for those who usually stick to lighter coloured ales.
This year, my second favourite find!
