Notes

This one is not an authentic 19th century reproduction. To do that I would have started by making some #3 invert sugar, basically burned sugar, to add at the end of the boil.

This modern mild gets it's color from black malt, exactly the way they wouldn't have done it in the 1890's.

tastes a bit fruity out of the fermenter
