1 lb English Cara
0.5 lbs Pale Chocolate

3.5 lbs Maris Otter LME
2 lbs Muntons Light DME

1 oz UK First Gold (AA 6.4%) (60 min.)

Kegged: 10/8/14 SG 1.013

Notes: I'm really not all that sure about the significance of the style description -- mild, certainly, and thus a perfect on-tap-at-home brew, but the colour is not notably dark compared to, say, a porter.
