Dark Mild
3.5% ABV
A 3.5% dark ruby beer with roasted notes and a smooth, creamy taste. A favourite of lovers of a good mild. Especially popular in East Lancashire and loved as a guest further afield. One of the finest Dark Yorkshire Milds still in Independent production.
Our Brewer’s Notes
Bittersweet and tasty, with hints of blackcurrant layered through soft, dark flavours of roasted malt.

Food matching
The earthy, nutty flavours in Dark Mild work really well with chicken liver pate, pan fried liver and onions and it’s a winner with mushroom stroganoff or risotto.
