    Strength: 4.2%
    Brewer: Buffy's
    Country: England
    Description: Colour=Dark brown, Malty=Yes, Hoppy=No, Effervesce=No, Other=Burnt caramel taste
    Preference: 3 (1=0 2=0 3=1 4=0 5=0)
    Comments: www.buffys.co.uk Going back 50 years or so, mild beers were considered the staple drink of beer lovers. Every ale house and licensed premises served the locally brewed mild, and bitter beers were very much an acquired taste. Since those heydays 'bitter' has replaced less well hopped beers as the preferred choice. A good mild beer is made with higher roast malts and should be packed with caramel flavours, with just a touch of sweetness. The colour can be anything from the usual dark hues through to a more amber coloured appearance. But, as with all ales, flavour must be the deciding factor. Buffy's Mild is somewhat stronger than the mass-produced brands, and reflects the current preference for mid-strength beers. Maris Otter and Chocolate malts are blended to produce this rich easy-drinking ale.
