I've never brewed or drank a Southern English Brown and Milds aren't a favorite style of mine, but I've been on a small beer kick lately and I thought I'd like to make a malty but low gravity beer that tastes more substantial than you'd expect from a sub 4% beer. Maybe this will make me a fan of milds.
