Dark Mild
Mentor Brewing Company

Having this beer on tap at the brewery. This beer draws a clear, very dark amber brown color with a white head that is about 1/2 of an inch thick when first drawn and served. Head settles eventually to a thick ring lining the inside of the glass at the beer’s surface along with a nice film layer of surface foam and excellent lacing. Aromas of some toasted bready malts, A bit of roasted nuts, and a slight earthy hop presence. A very similar flavor profile, with the aforementioned roasted, bready malts with a hint of caramel sweetness and a bit of roasted nuts. This is rounded out with some earthy hops that provide just the perfect amount of bitterness for a beer of this style. Has a crisp come on so smooth light to medium body by field with light to moderate carbonation. Has a somewhat dry finish and aftertaste, and all of the flavors linger nicely on my ballot after each step in the aftertaste. An excellent representation of this beer style.
