Our first mild in almost a decade! Expect smooth, balanced malt sweetness, a touch of roast character and hints of coffee. The ultimate classic British hop, Fuggles, provides a gentle bitterness.

Cask at the Kings Head, Bristol on 13th May 2026. Dark brown with shallow pale tan foam and spot lacing. Coffee roast malt aroma. Mildly sweet roastiness in-mouth and finish. Velvet smooth mouthfeel and a light body.

The subsequent customer asked for a "lager please, anything on draught". My specific choice is a classic mild in taste, which is dark malty near roasted but also sweetish in both aroma and taste. A clear dark-amber brew that's maybe a tad grittier than the standard.

440ml can from Craft & Berry. Gluten Free. Dark brown amber colour, off-white foam head and aroma of malt, caramel, molasses, roasty. Taste is sweet malty, with roasted notes, caramel, bready, chocolate, earthy, and mild bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, drying malty finish. Nicely drinkable.

Love a mild, especially dark ones. This one is excellent. Malty, little roasty, light and smooth.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from HOTM. Pours clear, light brown with a small, foamy tan head. Light sweet flavour, notes of brown bread, nutty accents, a faint leafy note, low bitterness. Light bodied with average carbonation. Balanced finish, subtle chocolatey notes, more brown bread. Easygoing.
