I wrote about the need for lower-alcohol, British-style milds in the U.S., in a post late Friday. Got a lot of response and the beiginning of a list, include 21st Amendment,  Bitter American, Firestone-Walker’s Little Opal,

Now, n a post today in his Seen Through a Glass blog, Lew Bryson tastes a new mild from  Earth Bread + Brewery, a new brewpub in Philadelphia..

  • The Love Your Mother Mild (which is on the “Mother” tap, a dedicated low-alcohol beer tap!) was delicious, one of the best American-brewed session-strength beers (3.2%!) I’ve ever had: malt, yeast character, smooth, incredibly drinkable, and a great balance of flavor. Excellent. READ THE REST OF HIS POST…

    This is absolutely wonderful !!!
    Excellent & so badly needed !!
    Many people of society have absolutely no idea just how damaging alcohol is to ones health. I certainly didn’t ! It wasn’t until both my late husband & I were hit severely, to the point where our perfectly neat & tidy/well organized life was destroyed.

    Good work William !! Keep us all posted please !!!
    (God Bless)
