Bottle to English pint glass, the appearance was a dark murky brown color with a cap of a little off white foamy head that fell off at a moderate pace. Slight messy lace, somewhat clingy.
The aroma had some light milk and dark chocolate playing with a little bit of caramel/toffee malt and then light earthy hops, light biscuits.
The flavor was malty sweet through all of the prior mentioned aromas. Aftertaste was a clean malty sweetness, smooth blending chocolate to caramel. Finish was smooth and sweet.
The palate was between light and medium bodied with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation felt nice and low as appropriate to style. ABV felt as projected.
Overall, pretty nice English dark mild. I’d do this one again.

bottle - Pours lightly hazy amber and has a grainy aroma that put me in mind of oatmeal. The flavor is sweet and earthy with some mild bitterness. It’s medium bodied with an earthy, lightly bitter finish. It’s okay.

22oz bomber poured into a shaker. Pours a dark nut brown with a finger of beige gead. Aroma is very light. Toffee with some spices and bready yeast. Taste is light sweet. Toffee and spice with bread and somthhing slightly tart. Light bodied with a thin and smooth texture. Fizzy carbonation abd a long finish. Overall, not bad. A little fruity but im wondering if this may be infected with brett also. Oh well, im digging it.

Bottle. Lactic chocolate malt aroma. Clear brown with moderate tan head. Tart lactic acid and light chocolate malt flavor. Decent body. Not bad - more tart than the typical mild ale.

Bottle. Deep amber body with a short, fizzy, off-white head. Aroma of roasted malts, caramel, grain. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes lightly sweet and lightly to moderate bitter. Thin body, watery texture, moderate carbonation. The roast dominates the beer giving it a strong ashy taste. There’s not a lot else other than whispers of nuts, toffee. The ashy, burnt flavor lingers into the finish. Appreciate a 3.2% ABV beer with flavor, though this was too ashen for my taste.

Pint draft at Local 22 during CCBW (still a hotel bar-priced $8). Light brown color, lots of light shining through. Poured from one of those newfangled taps where the nozzle is at the bottom of the glass to prevent foam from coming up. Sigh, at least it’s not a frozen glass (though I spotted a freezer for them behind the bar). Result is a thin, nitro type head. A get a brown malt nose, very much like a Newcastle. Despite looking pretty well filtered, there’s still a taste of yeast in there. Does fit in the the English Mild style, with its thin carbonation and Fuggles type hops around brown roast malt. Should be very easy drinking, but those malts offer a bit of chewiness that must be considered.

Purchased at Armanetti’s in Chicago, IL; enjoyed on a Friday afternoon after getting my teeth whitened, which didn’t really work very well. Appearance is a dark amber with a thin off white head that rims around the glass. Aroma is very rich in caramel, with notes of butterscotch, and a very small touch of hops. Delicious aroma. Taste is outstanding, very flavorful, it actually finishes slightly crisp but still has a nice sweetness to it. At 3.2% I can see myself definitely getting this again, but I guess I should act fast as it’s a ltd ed release. Great stuff!
