Mild May?

[Arthurish]

Visited a few other pubs today, 25th May, no milds not even in Wetherspoons at Elephant & Castle, finally made it to The Speaker had two dak milds on and tried them both. Fantastic pints.
it was a long walk but well worth it.

Hi all,

Is there a shortage of Mild this year? I've visited a few pubs and haven't seen any Milds on sale.
Maybe I've been going into the wrong pubs.
The only Mild I've had this year I got back in April, can't remember the name though.

Thanks

Funny you ask this cos..

1) Silk Kite in Tamworth do have mild festival.. I have tried Hook Norton Special Dark Mild, Rudgate Ruby Mild, Elgood's Black Dog and Caledonian Mild Mayhem.. all were excellent BUT..

2) other JDW in town The Bolebridge doesn't EVEN sell any mild festival ales!

Pubs in Stoke Prior had good old Banks Mild at the weekend. I noticed that they have changed pumpclips to read Mild instead of Original. Mild is more acceptable these days than when they felt they had to call it Original.

Very good it was too.

It is happening a lot around the midlands now Gill and is good to see. I have noted that you have done Stoke Prior, i have a good friend that lives there, but have always been driving when i visit, so now i may stay over and get him to go the pubs!
