Sampled on tap at Beer Revolution on 2/14/2011. This English Mild pours a medium amber color from the tap. Large sized white foamy head. The aroma is caramel, bready, malty and sweet. A medium to light bodied English Mild. The malts are caramel and sweet, bready with a slight hint of chocolate. The hops are herbal. Decent carbonation. Malt forward with some lingering hoppiness. Nice flavor, very easy to drink. A nice session ale, just as it was intended to be. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth, Aftertaste is slightly bitter.

3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
(draft at Cafe Bierre Emeryville, Calif) Somewhat sourness to the light roasted malt flavor. Reminds me of a brown ale. Cloudy brown body. No real head. Clean palate. Thinnish body. Would be a good session beer.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
On tap at Beer Revolution. It pours a dark orange/brown with a dense off white head. The aroma is nice with roasted malt and a touch of chocolate and fruit.the flavor is pretty dry with a nice grainy complexity and just a touch of astringency. Hints of burnt toast and tart berries round out a very thin mouthfeel, which is the brewers intent here, no doubt. Overall, a nice tasty session beer that goes down way too easy.
