John Harvards British Mild

On tap at the Harvard location billed as the Midlands Mild. Pours a lightly hazy brownish/amber with a medium creamy light tan head that left some lacing. Aroma of caramel and an overall sweet maltiness. Flavor of caramel malt, light citrus hop presence. Not much to say about this session ale.

Nitro tap, so it has a smooth looking dark body with a full, creamy tan head. Aroma is bitter but light. Tastes great, with the moderate bitterness balanced by a disctinct chocolatey malt. Very drinkable.

Slightly bitter, like a British mild should be. Solid maltiness and subdued hoppiness. Reminds me of Newcastle brown ale a little.

Light but with a lot of flavor and an exellent palate. One of the few that I would go back for.

An excellent beer w/ lots of taste. Very complex. A complex malt and aggressive hop flavor are mellowed by a wonderful creaminess (created by serving it on nitrogen). Very drinkable.

I’ve had this twice. The first time i thought it was a nice Sam Adams style beer. The second time I thought it was pretty icky. Had the same aftertaste as Boddingtons and Old Speckled Hen which I’ve learned to really dislike. So, I’ll split the votes.
