Mine Brewery Bucking Mild Ale 500ml

About this beer

Mine Brewery Bucking Mild Ale is a traditional British mild ale with a smooth, malty character and gentle bitterness, crafted for easy drinking and authentic flavour. Bucking Mild Ale from Mine Brewing Company in St Ives, Cornwall, represents a modern revival of the classic mild style. Brewed in small batches on the site of a former mine, it reflects the brewery’s ethos of producing unfined, unfiltered beers with no nonsense, showcasing purity and craftsmanship. Mild ales are known for their lower alcohol content and approachable flavour profile, and Bucking Mild Ale stays true to this heritage. This ale pours a deep amber to mid‑brown colour with a soft, rounded body. On the nose, it offers aromas of caramel malt and subtle berry notes, while the palate delivers smooth layers of biscuit, light toffee and gentle roasted character. The finish is balanced and lightly bitter, making it a satisfying yet sessionable choice. The style itself has historic roots in Britain, dating back to the 17th century, originally brewed as a young, fresh ale. While milds declined in popularity during the 20th century, they have seen a modest renaissance thanks to independent breweries like Mine Brewing, which celebrate traditional recipes with a contemporary touch.
