CAMRA always promotes Mild throughout May and this year's campaign was called 'Wild about Mild'. The Surrey Oaks supported this promotion by having a mild available every day throughout May.
So what's a mild? In CAMRA's own words:
Mild is a beer style that is full-flavoured and refreshing. It is
less hopped and usually of a lower alcohol content than many other
styles. It gets much of its flavour from malts or roasted barley and
is both distinctive and tasty. Mild is one of the most traditional
beer styles which is enjoying a revival in today's real ale market.
This is the third year in secession that The Surrey Oaks managed to sell a mild throughout May and we hope you managed to try some of these superb beers.
