A classic example of a beer mild in hops but not in flavour. Sweetness balanced by bitter chocolate malt to produce a rare but much sought after traditional mild.

Note: Has been brewed at various strengths between 3.6% and 4.7%

Bottle at home, online from Beautiful Beers, BSE. Pours almost black in colour, creamy beige head. Aroma of roasted malts, chocolate, toffee, caramel. Taste of roasted malts, chocolate, some toffee, slight plum, hint of dark berries, a smidge of coffee. Light bodied, soft carbonation. A dryish, chocolate bitter finish. Didn't love this one

Pours very dark brown (almost black) with a dense white head that shows nice retention and lacing. Aroma has gently roasted and chocolate malts, and maybe a touch of fruitiness. Taste shows a bit of malt sweetness with a gentle milk coffee feel (quite milk stout like). Light chocolate. Gentle roasted malts notes to bring balance. Again, maybe a fruity hint. Sweetness and bitterness are overall both mild and in good balance. Light bodied with light carbonation, easy and decently silky mouthfeel. Very much doing it’s job in being an enjoyable mild. Quite nice.

Cask handpull at the Shadingfield Fox, Suffolk. Pours ruby brown with an off white head. Aroma of light malt, chocolate and touch of sour fruits. Medium to heavy sweetness, light roasted bitterness. Medium body, texture slightly sticky, soft carbonation. Dry fruity finish. Better cask than bottled.

Cask at the Jerusalem Tavern, Farringdon. Dark brown with a light tan head. Sweet/sour malty scent. Light and sweet taste, borne forward with sesame, bamboo and chocolate malt flavours. Inconsequential but it’s a mild so I’m ok with that. Certainly enjoyable for what it is.

BOTTLE 50 CL. Dark brown with ruby highlights, small beige head. Strong malty and caramel aroma with slight hints of spicy hops. The body is light, drinkable and almost devoid of carbonation. Dark caramel with enough roast and spicy hops to balance the sweetness and give this simple beer enough complexity. Well done.

Bottle at Boban place in Vranovo-Serbia. Tasting. Pours a dark brown clear with a medium ivory foam. Nose: leather, dust, smoked, roasted malts, bacon. Mouth: watery but in a good way, frizzy start, nuts, roasted barley, clean and dry end. Best mild by far. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
