Mike challenges his palate the episode with a favorite style and his least favorite hop. Its English Dark Mild with Fuggles hop.
I like low ABV English style beers and I really like dark English beers. I decided to brew a Dark Mild Ale to fill in the low ABV needs at the house. Sometimes I just want an easy to approach beer that isn't going to make be feel the alcohol like most modern IPAs do.
This beer came out a little darker than expect with 7% each of Amber Malt, Carastan and Chocolate malt. However the beer was still very flavor full with notes of milk chocolate and coffee notes.
The Fuggles hops however really showed off their herbal and earthy character that I just don't like that well. I prefer the herbal and floral profile of an EKG hop. Well I tried at least. I'll see how this beer ages a bit as it ages over the next couple weeks.
CHEERS!
