Launched in 1927 by Colonel Jim Porter after three years of development, the 1960 merger of Newcastle Breweries with Scottish Brewers afforded the beer national distribution and sales peaked in the United Kingdom during the early 1970s. The brand underwent a resurgence in the late 1980s and early 1990s. By the late 1990s, the beer was the most widely distributed alcoholic product in the UK. Brewing moved in 2005 from Newcastle to Dunston, Tyne and Wear and in 2010 to John Smiths Brewery in Tadcaster.

Bottle at Black Prince, New Haw. The only tick available. Aroma is sweet and malty, cheap own brand cola sweetness. Light chestnut. Thin creamy translucent white head. Light-medium sour berries. A vague hint of bitterness in there. Peripheral sweetness. Underlying malts. Medium bodied. Slick. Average carbonation. A basic sweet and sour bitter. But not as boring as some macro Ales.

Bottle from Systembolaget. Clear brownish/amber with a medium head. Sweet with malt, caramel, some butter and hints of medicine. Thin and boring. Last time I drank this was in the 20th century, I understand why.

bottiglia 550 ml, schiuma beige fine media persistenza, color ambrato carico limpido, al naso leggero caramello malto tostato nocciola una punta di caffè, in bocca malto e caramello, carbonazione moderata, corpo leggero, watery, amaro percettibile. Sarà perché non è il mio stile ma non mi ha entusiasmato. Una birra da battaglia. c. Unes Maccagno 25.07.20
