So full disclosure - bought, opened, and poured thinking this was a pale ale - but did not look, smell, or taste like a pale ale - oh - English Pale Mild Ale - makes more sense indeed.
Pours a a dark almost clear amber colour with hints of copper and a finger of tawny , khaki head.
Aroma is soft and malty - notes of bread, caramel, a touch nutty and earthy.
Taste follows - sweet bready malt, a bit of caramel and a touch earthy and floral - bereft of any real bitterness.
Light to medium mouthfeel with soft carbonation - a little sweet and certainly easy to drink, if not otherwise remarkable - not what I expected but is part on me there - though 6% ABV, hidden as it was, does not say “mild” to me.

look: 3 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5
Amber color with a one finger off-white head with medium retention.
Aroma with notes of papaya, bread, biscuit and some spices.
Flavor with notes of papaya, spices, mild cocoa, herbal and earthy hops, biscuit malt, caramel and a mild grapefruit citrusy. Dry and bitter aftertaste.
Light towards medium body with appropriate carbonation.
Decent average English Pale Ale, well-crafted and balanced.
