Great mild. Malty, nutty, sessionable. We killed a case in the course of a co-ed softball game.

This is my first English mild so I can't tell you how it stacks up to other beers of this style. However generally speaking I am a huge fan of English style ales and this one does not disappoint. To me, it tastes like a lighter version of an English brown ale. I really like having a lower abv option like this for the warm weather.

Nutty medium bodied flavor with a clean quenching mouthfeel and a clean finish. Tastes more like a bock than a mild, which makes it really strange tasting.

Appearance: Smaller hazy head, reminds me a lot of a melted Coke Slurpee.

Aroma: Malty, Bready, Slightly Salty aroma.

Taste: Extremely salty, undertones of bread or biscuits. bitter, but not hoppy.

Mouthfeel: low bodied, almost watery. small about of carbonation (may have been this bottle).

Overall: I don't know if it is just me or not but it seems too salty for my taste, If you like bready beers then this is a good choice for you, if you like Beers that are hoppy or fuller bodied steer clear.

I need something to finish my peanuts at the hockey game. It was local in Detroit so I gave it a shot. A bit boring. Brown color with a decent head and good lacing. Subdued smell with a slightly sweet bready taste. It was ok.
