This recipe has been designed to be consistent with the 2021 BJCP Style guide 13A: Dark Mild.
Britannia is a recipe created for The League of Brewers by Jamie McQuillan of Cell Division Brewery.
Originating in the United Kingdom, Milds have a long history and have changed a great deal with the passing of time. The Dark Milds of today are a style with a wide scope of interpretation, ranging in colour from copper to deep brown in colour. They are a great low alcohol British-style session ale that pack a flavour punch well above their abv.
Britannia pours a deep copper colour, with soft notes of caramel, chocolate and roasted coffee on the nose and palate. A medium body and smooth mouthfeel are well suited to low to medium levels of carbonation, especially on hand pull as is traditional for this style. English grown Target hops provide a supporting bitterness and undertones of earthy and floral flavours. Thirst inducing, thirst quenching!
This recipe assumes correct mineral additions for pH calculations, which are not included in the kit. Please purchase these separately.
