Commercial Description:
This accessibly great tasting beer, patterned after the English Mild style, is the lightest of the Motor City line up. But don't let the adjectives throw you, its deliciously flavorful. The label was designed by Artist Glen Barr and there is rock CDs to go along with the beer.

12 oz bottle, my first mild, not impressed! Dark copper color with a lasting tall fluffy light tan head. Dry caramel, grass, celery and herbal hops. Flavors a bit better then the aroma. Mostly malt. Caramel, chocolate malt and mild nuttiness with a hint of hops, flat finish.

Poured with a body that reminded me of iced tea. A light khaki head went away quickly. The aroma had light caramel and iced tea. there is a little bit of nuttiness behind the malt. The tate is strogn iced tea with some light hints of plums at the edges of my tongue. A fairly decent backbone on this one, it is a little big for the style. However, it is an easy drinker. I woudn’t mind doing a session of this stuff.

Pours deep brown with a moderate, fluffy head. Generally malty flavor with caramel and toffee flavors. Some mild hoppiness in there. Nothing great, but not anything I object to.

Bottle from Belo Vino. Poured a clear deep brown with an average rocky off-white head that diminished very slowly with fair lacing. Medium sweet malty and hoppy aroma. Medium body with soft carbonation. Moderate bittersweet flavor with an average sweet finish of medium duration. Drinkable brew.

On tap at pub. Mild but has some flavors. A bit hoppy, nutty and sweet. If it had a bit more mothfeel it would be top notch.
