Dark Mild

Smooth, Dark Ruby Ale

A 3.4% 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.

We have moved Dark Mild from 3.5% to 3.4% alcohol by volume [ABV] for all to benefit from the new lower duty rates. Given the change is only 0.1% of alcohol and HMRC tolerances (e.g. 3.49% ABV is rounded down to 3.4% not up to 3.5%) we have not had to make any changes to our recipe but just minor adjustments to fermentation, that will be imperceptible to the consumer.

167 years of brewing without a coffee break.

167 years of brewing without a coffee break.

It’s true. If you visit our brewhouse in Keighley, Yorkshire, you won’t ever catch a whiff of arabica emanating from the brewers’ office. But it isn’t because they don’t have breaks. It’s because our brewers never drink coffee. The reason for their ban on the brown stuff is that coffee plays havoc with the palate. Our four full-time brewers start and finish every brew of our beer, carefully tasting and testing as they go. And when you have a beer as finely balanced as Landlord, you need brewers with finely tuned noses and taste buds. It’s a small sacrifice for a great sip of beer.
