Yeah yeah we know, a true mild is supposed to be like 3% or whatever but we'll be honest- it just didn't seem like enough malt. The key here is this is a super smooth malty beer that clocks in light on the ABV's with a boost of body lent to it by Maine malted oats, some sweetness from Crystal malts, and some toasty-roasty vibes from small amounts of Chocolate and Roasted Barley. Cheers, or as they say in England...cheers.
