Ron,
So basically brown ale was mild ale colored up with caramel, and maybe some darker malt, to get the desired color? So would it basically be what current dark mild is, maybe just a different shade of brown?
Mild Ale maybe with some extra priming sugars. No extra dark malt. Just the same colour as the Mild, depending on how dark that was.
Current Dark Mild is often a bit different from a post-war Dark Mild though. Contemporary versions tend to be coloured with chocolate malt and closer to 4% than 3%. I’m not a fan but that’s what brewers are doing.
More than a bit different I'd say. Most current "milds" are just low abv porters. In my world mild ale and porter are two altogether different beer styles.
