it's dark an smooth but it's not to my mind a mild, it's too highly hopped with new world hops so I think the brewery description is a bit off. Lovely beer to my taste though so I'd better try some more to make sure .

A few sampled this week at The Merchants semi-annual beer festival including:
Oakham Bishops Farewell 4.6%
Tryst Carronade IPA 4.2%
Victory Thick as Thieves 6.8%
Rooster Fort Smith 5%
Blue Monkey Guerilla Stout 4.9%
Acorn St George's Best 4.6%
All were very good but I think Roosters Fort Smith just nudges it as BOTW. A typical Roosters beer, pale and hoppy but with that bit extra punch.

I really wish I hadn't thought that this was a great beer.
It's from Arkwrights (claiming to be The Very Silly Brewing Company) and is named after a Monty Python sketch featuring Michael Palin as Tarquin...................
Light, hoppy, very moreish and 3.9%. It passed the 3 pint test easily in The Baum on a Tuesday night.
