Dark in colour and silky smooth in texture, this famous northern drink offers a full and roasted flavour. With an unassuming low 3.2% ABV our dark Mild packs plenty of flavour thanks to the use of black and crystal malts with English cone hops, giving a good amount of bitterness alongside a drop of sweetness with caramel and slight coffee notes – it’s no wonder it was so popular with miners after a hard day’s graft.

It is a long time since I had Holt's Mild and had forgotten how much I enjoy it. An excellent dark mild. Pint in The Railway, West Didsbury.

Weird... could have sworn that I rated this but must have not saved it. Malty aroma. Dark cola brown. Creamy white head. Light bitter. Light bodied. On the thin side. Average carbonation. Abrupt finish.
