Courage X 1918 - Mild - 3/25/16

Every once in a while I like to drop back in time and brew a beer that hasn't been around in a long time. How about a little 100 year old English Mild for the recently repaired beer engine? Pale, mild, crystal, invert sugar, caramel coloring. English and German hops. Around 4% abv. I really like these low alcohol beers. 

Here's the recipe from the brewery log master - Ron Pattinson http://barclayperkins.blogspot.com/2009/03/lets-brew-wednesday-1918-courage-x.html Tasting Notes


4/15/16 update: WLP002 Yeast: A little coffee in the nose, burnt sugar, caramel, a little malt, a little hop.

Jasus, Mary, and Joseph, this is nice.

 Why don't breweries make this kind of beer any more?

Brewery update: Had a problem with kettle plug melting. Looks like a loose connection in the wiring. I may have caused this when replacing the PID. Replaced wiring and the plugs.
