A very traditional English Mild. Flavors of caramel, toffee, cocoa and dark fruit notes. Mild’s are brewed as a “session” style beer. “Session” beers are lower alcohol beers with lots of flavor, meant to be enjoyed during an extended day of good food and great company. Our version is brewed using 2-Row Barley and a combination of light and dark caramel malts.

Bottle from perrys. Highly carbonated. Pours clear Ruby mahogany, large foamy beige head, long lasting. Aroma is pretty cardboard, malt, roast. Flavor is medium sweet, malty, roasty, cardboard, meh, double meh. Huge carbonation on light body. Wonderful combination. I don’t know if this has been sitting on shelves for years, but no bueno.

6th June 2010. RBESG 10 Grand Tasting at the Brasserie 4:20 warehouse. Thanks to Wavers1, Very hazy dark brown beer. Short lived light brown head. Crisp and very dry palate. Dry and bitter and soft. Chalky. A little lightly toasted malt. It’s all a bit of a mess and doesn’t join up at all - really not good at all.

A reddish amber ale with a thin off white head. In aroma, roasted malts, light apples, not bad. In mouth, a rather buttery malt, like toast with too much butter, light roasted malts, light bodied. On tap at brewpub, August 27 2009.
