What the brewer says

“English mild ale.”

What our panel thought

Aroma: “Malt-forward. Biscuit, bread, toast. Subtle noble hops. Lightly floral, perfume. Slight lemon esters with a light, woodsy hops aroma, some berry notes, and a hint of caramelize­d apples.” Flavor: “Bright nutty character, almost peanut-like, up front. Floral hops notes emerge more as it warms. Low carbonatio­n and body, but both are appropriat­e to style. The finish is biscuit malt mixed with apple and pear esters balanced with light earthy hops, low bitterness, and smooth finish.” Overall: “A clean, well-balanced easy-drinking mild. It’s like a session nut brown ale, which in itself is usually sessionabl­e, so if you’re in the mood for a super crushable autumn beer, this will do the trick.”
