Sip into the majestic taste of Augustinian, a premium ale that’s crafted to perfection by Nethergate Brewery. This delightful drink was originally brewed to celebrate the 750th anniversary of the Augustinian priory in Clare, Suffolk, which is also the birthplace of our esteemed brewery.

As you pour a glass of this fine ale, you’ll notice its rich amber hue and the creamy head that beckons you to take a sip. Your taste buds will be greeted with a smooth yet intense flavour that’s infused with a hint of Crystal malt and the late addition of Styrian Goldings hops. Together, they create a continental essence that sets Augustinian apart from other ales.

Cask @ Bedford Arms, Bedford. Copper/tan with a fair bit of head. Faint aroma of honey and citrus with a trace of undefinable grain. Taste is sour/bitter with an astringent bitter aftertaste. Passable but not all that exciting.
