Nice clarity on the 12oz pour with a small head that maintains a ring of lace on the surface and a little on the glass. Good chestnut color.
Some real metallic bitterness here, especially in the finish which has a little copper coinage metal in the back.
Nice beer, that is a bit edgy, and for me lacks a little sophistication. Also, to me this is simply NOT a mild ale. In my milds (which I think are originals) we would look for more sweetness, a greater malt presence and less bittering from the hops.
Having said ALL of that, this is still a decent beer that is drinkable and I enjoyed, but it’s certainly not a classic, English Mild.
