What is Mild Ale?
A mild ale is a traditional British beer style known for its low bitterness, malty sweetness, and smooth, easy-drinking character. Mild ale refers to a style of Mild ale that uses fewer hops than bitter beers. Brewers focus more on malt flavours, which creates a softer and sweeter taste profile.
Key characteristics
- Low hop bitterness
- Strong malt flavour with caramel or toffee notes
- Dark amber to deep brown colour
- Light to medium body
- Smooth, gentle finish
Taste profile
Mild ale tastes soft and slightly sweet compared to other British ales. It often features roasted, nutty, or caramel flavours with very little bitterness. Most mild ales range from 3.0% to 4.0% ABV, making them sessionable and easy to drink.
Why it’s called “mild”
Brewers originally used the word “mild” to describe beer that tasted fresh and unaged, not weak. Over time, the name became linked to its lower bitterness.
Common styles
- Dark mild (most traditional version)
- Pale mild (lighter and less common)

ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS REQUIRED:
To make this kit, you will either need 1Kg Brewing Sugar, 1Kg Lager Beer Kit Enhancer (Preferred) or 1.2Kg Mangrove Jack’s Malt Extract. Later, you will also need sugar or carbonation drops to prime the keg or bottles for the secondary fermentation. We also advise using finings like Starbrite to ensure your lager clears quickly. It will also help the sediment sticks to the bottom on the bottle or keg.
The Muntons Premium range was developed for the original four kits in the early days of English home-brewing. Formulations for this range have purposely not been changed since they were first developed back in the early 1970′s – a tremendous heritage and a proven track record. The Premium range has been extended to include styles of beer from far reaches of the world. American Style Light, Canadian Style Beer, Scottish Style Heavy Ale, Old Ale and so on. The Premium range allows home beer makers to experience flavours from around the world in their own homes, enjoyably and economically.
Once again the Muntons Premium range is made entirely from 100% hopped malt extract with no inferior or cheap adjuncts such as barley syrup. There is one notable exception to this however – the American Style Light Beer. To emulate the light delicate character of this popular beer style it was necessary to include in the kit a percentage of liquid sugar. This is the only beer kit in the extensive Muntons ranges made from anything other than 100% hopped malt extract.
