I'm a big fan of Mild - a brew that is rapidly dissappearing from Pubs here in the U.K.
In fact, my desire for a good, 'old fashioned' Mild, like I used to drink in my youth is what has drawn me to All Grain.
So, I get to start to fulfill my ambition tomorrow and brew my first Mild.
My recipe:
Batch size: 20L
3.840 kg Pale Malt, Maris Otter
0.160 kg Crystal Malt
0.090 kg Black Malt
0.090 kg Chocolate Malt
39g Fuggles
S-04 Yeast
Est ABV: 3.75%
Should be simple enough, but I'm hoping it turn outs ok. Beersmith gives it good colour, and hopefully it will be sweet enough (but not too sweet!).
I'm sure that I will have to adjust the recipe a few times to get it right.
Is Mild a beer that you guys are familiar with in the U.S.? When I worked in the U.S. (Detroit) I never saw anything like it in the bars.
