The Mild style is an English workingman’s go-to beer. After a long day of manual labor, the pubs and public houses fill up with blokes, gents, and Dodgy Geezers looking to share stories and pints. Malts are the show here, featuring a wonderful rich, malty character with milk chocolate notes. At just 3.8% ABV, Dodgy Geezer may be light on alcohol but is anything but mild in flavor.

On tap @ Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2013. This is a clear deep chestnut brown one with a small light bubbly off-white top. It smells of wort and chestnuts ironically enough. Light sweet, something lightly roasted as well. Smells absolutely OK. It has lots of flavor for being a mild one. Not directly sweet, but it has some wort sweetness, lots of nuts and a little bit of chocolate paper. Light dry and woody finish. 03.05.2013

CBC. Bit of tired end of session rating. Light haze on this amber beer, little white head. Light crisp palate. Somewhat insipid malts, Mild minerals. Crisp dry finish. Probably should have had this as the start of the session - it’s coming over as very wishy washy after all those big beers!
