Dark and complex, but easy going and very sessionable, the Traditional Dark Mild has been a staple of English Beer for a very long time. Don't let the colour fool you, this is not a sipper, so get it down yer!

As usual, we brew one ourselves, talk about the style and our recipe, before trying out these commercial examples:
