A stronger, 5% ABV Mild. Loaded with lots of lovely sugar. Yum! From before WW I messed up Mild forever.

The recipe is slightly more complicated than it appears, as the pale malt was an eclectic mix of 50% English, 25% Californian and 25 % Australian. Using grain from all over the world – though it was always malted in the UK – was typical of English beers before WW I.

The sugar is about a 50-50 split between No. 3 invert and something called – think, the handwriting is hard to read – Trintose. Or possibly Tintose. I’ve assumed it’s another dark sugar and have just increased the amount of No. 3.

The hops were Oregon from the 1907 harvest, Mid-Kent from 1909 and East Kent from 1908. I’ve interpreted the latter two as Fuggles and Goldings, respectively.
