This Saturday we`re launching an Irish Mild Ale that we brewed in collaboration with @tcre_hurling_camogie. All proceeds will go to support the Club.
A `mild` is a traditional, low-alcohol session ale celebrated for its exceptional balance and rich malt-forward flavors. Amber in color, it features subtle roasted notes of caramel and toffee supported by a very low hop bitterness.
The name "mild" originated in the 17th-century as a way to distinguish fresh, young ales from stale or aged ales. By the 20th century, it became the working-class beer of choice, favored by miners and factory workers.
While the style experienced a sharp decline in mass-market popularity in the latter half of the 20th century, it has seen a remarkable resurgence in Craft breweries who have embraced its nuance and low-alcohol drinkability.
