Hogan Sampling		24 May 2025	1st beer: Came with very good head and lacing on this Bristol-based dark mild and lasted. A bitter/hoppy first hit. A maltiness rose up in the mouthfeel with just the merest hint of caramel. The odd blackberry or two presented itself and a satisfying fruity bitterness lived on in the aftertaste. According to CAMRA's own research, mild ales accounted for 75% of all beer produced in Britain following the Second World War, and so a good one to kick off the festival with and on my mission to seek out the traditional ales here.
