A darker coloured Mild than Original, Banks’s Dark Mild has a subtle bitterness that is balanced by a malty sweetness to give a round, warm depth of flavour.

Nitrokeg at the Habberley Social Club, Kidderminster. Pours An extremely dark brown with a large tan head. Aroma was coffee, a bot faint. Taste started with some coffee and watery chocolate in the finish. Thin in the mouth but it is low strength. Just a note, this is a different beer to Banks’s Mild, which should be rated under Banks’s Original.

[Keg at the Steamer Inn, Shanklin] Black with a thick, creamy nitrohead. Very faint carbonation. Roasted malt and coca-cola flavour with a little granite in the finish, but all in all a little weak and watery.
